ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 9th MARCH 2020

Question

Will the Chief Minister advise whether any prospective flights back to the Island were offered to him, or investigated, by Government of Jersey officers in order that he might be able to attend the States Meeting on Tuesday 25th and / or Wednesday 26th February 2020; and if such flights were offered or investigated, will he advise why he did not take up any such options?

The Chief Minister was on a family holiday, due to return on Sunday 23rd February. As this was personal travel, Government of Jersey officers were not asked by the Chief Minister to assist.
