WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT BY DEPUTY M. TADIER OF ST. BRELADE
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 12TH JULY 2016
Question
With reference to page 154 of the Draft Medium Term Financial Plan Addition for 2017-19, will the Minister explain who he expects will pay the £200,000 and £800,000 user pays' charges shown as savings for 2018 and 2019 respectively and how the revenue from those charges will be broken down between food sale outlets and private rental dwellings?
Answer
The "User pays" charges shown on page 154 of the Draft Medium Term Financial Plan Addition for 2017- 19, are conditional on changes in legislation through the usual States Assembly approval process. I would expect the charges to be paid by the Food Business Operators, and the Landlords of rented dwellings. The breakdown of amounts to be raised is based on the projected timetable for legislation. In 2018, £200,000 would be from Food Business Operators. In 2019, £300,000 would be from Food Business Operators and £500,000 from Landlords of Rented dwellings.
