WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 10th JULY 2018

Question

Will the Chief Minister advise whether all of the information provided to the Independent Jersey Care Inquiry by civil and public servants, including information contained in emails between Ministers and their subordinates, has been preserved and will be available for public scrutiny?

Answer

The Protocols that the Independent Jersey Care Inquiry drew up included details as to its processes around the categorization of all data it received. Such data includes all data provided by Civil Servants which includes emails between Ministers and their subordinates.

As part of its hand over, the Panel oversaw the archiving of the material held by it. During the handover the Panel transferred a vast amount of redacted information to the Jersey Archive, including witness statements and evidence.

This material is in the course of being fully catalogued by the Archive Service. Once catalogued it is uploaded and can be viewed by all members of the public, via the Jersey Archive online catalogue.
