WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR INFRASTRUCTURE BY DEPUTY H.L. JEUNE OF ST. JOHN, ST. LAWRENCE AND TRINITY QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 24th NOVEMBER 2025 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 1st DECEMBER 2025
Question
"Further to the publication of the Independent PFAS Scientific Advisory Panel for Jersey – Third Report, in February 2025, will the Minister advise whether he intends to respond to the report's recommendations and detail what policy and operational changes, if any, are planned in the management of P.F.A.S. (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) at the containment cells at La Collette and at the Bellozanne sewage treatment works?"
Answer
The remit for Report Three does not include PFAS in the environment; that matter will be dealt with in Report Four which is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2026. Work on Report Four is underway. Testing is currently being undertaken to understand the impact of PFAS on the environment from treating sewage at the Bellozanne works and waste management activities at La Collette. Policy changes will be considered with any other recommendations from the Panel when the report is published.
