You ask for submissions regarding the use of cash. I believe it is important to continue to have cash in circulation:

  1. For those on low income it is a useful, perhaps essential, tool for budgeting purposes
  2. Some small businesses wish to sell their products or services only for cash to avoid the charges imposed by card companies

d) Recently installed parking machines in both England and France continue to have a cash payment option, so visitors to the island have reasonable expectations of being able to use cash here.

It seems anomalous that the States of Jersey issues currency but will not accept that legal tender in settlement of debts, e.g. parking charges, due to itself.
