WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER

BY DEPUTY S.Y. MÉZEC OF ST. HELIER ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 20th OCTOBER 2015

Question

At what point was the Chief Minister aware of the resignation of Mr. Kevin Keen from his post as adviser with the States of Jersey? How long did it take for Mr. Keen's resignation to be made public and why did it take this long? Will the government be seeking someone new to fill the post?

Answer

Mr Keen's role reviewing the Public Sector Reform programme was initially expected to be short term. The Chief Minister was aware in early September that Mr Keen's review had been completed and that this particular arrangement would not continue. Mr Keen will remain as an independent advisor alongside Sir David Henshaw and Ms Lis Astell.

I am very grateful for the work he undertook and for the assistance he gave departments with the Public Sector Reform programme.
