WQ.226/2019
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HOME AFFAIRS
BY DEPUTY C.S. ALVES OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 21st MAY 2019
Question
How many noise complaint reports in the last three years, if any, have resulted in no action being taken due to the requirement to have three separate complainants regarding the incident before any action is taken?
Answer
During the last three years the States of Jersey Police have received 628 noise complaints, the vast majority of which were noisy parties. It is current policy that Police Officers do not attend unless there are two separate complaints. The Police did not attend any of the 628 noise complaints as only one complaint was made. All reports are recorded in case there are repeat complaints. If appropriate the information is shared with other relevant organisations (e.g. Environmental Health).
