WQ.188/2023
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HOUSING AND COMMUNITIES BY DEPUTY S.Y. MÉZEC OF ST. HELIER SOUTH
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 24th APRIL 2023
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 2nd MAY 2023
Question
“Given the Minister’s stance on rent control presented in his election campaign, will the Minister provide details on any instructions or guidance on the inclusion of rent control that he provided to the officers who developed the rental white paper?”
Answer
I work on policy with my officers in an open and iterative way. I have not instructed officers on the inclusion of rent control matters in the Improving Residential Tenancies in Jersey white paper. Officers have provided their professional advice on the matter, and I have listened to that advice and provided a political steer on what has ultimately been included in the white paper.
