ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 17th JUNE 2014

Question

Would the Chairman advise how much, approximately, was distributed by parishes in welfare payments in the last whole year that system existed?

Answer

The information is contained in the statement about the Island wide rate 2006 which was made to the States by the Chairman of the Comité des Connétable s on 21 June 2006.

In that statement the Chairman reported that the figures received from Parishes showed that £3,323,934 was spent on welfare and £5,492,516 on residential care for the year ending 30 April 2006; so a total of £8,816,450.
