CHIEF MINISTER’S FOREWORD

During 2010, difficult decisions had to be made to address the predicted deficits caused by the economic downturn. The Comprehensive Spending Review identified a programme of spending reduction across all States Departments. It is imperative that this momentum is maintained. Accordingly, the major priority for the Chief Minister’s Department in 2011 will be to lead the implementation phase of the Comprehensive Spending Review to ensure that our public services are delivered in the most efficient and effective way, and that the resources we have are targeted to where they are most needed.

Equally important in 2011 will be our actions internationally, particularly in relation to taxation matters and strengthening our links with the other Crown Dependencies. Continuing pressure on our international reputation and increasing scrutiny of our prime industry will need to be addressed through effective policy implementation. The focus will be on improving our international identity and pressing home the message that Jersey is a stable democracy and a well regulated quality jurisdiction with the right skills and services in which to do business. We will also need to develop a revised framework for dealing with the UK Government following the publication of the response of the Ministry of Justice to the Select Committee report.

The implementation of the Migration Policy will continue with the finalisation of legislation for debate by the States Assembly in the early part of 2011. Following this, arrangements for the implementation of the new Law, including the creation of a population register, will be put in place.

The 2011 census is also a major undertaking for the department during the year.

2011 is an election year and the department will be making preparations throughout the year to support the new Council of Ministers once they are appointed in November, and initiate a framework for the preparation by the new Council of its Strategic Plan for 2012-2016.

SECTION 1

INTRODUCTION BY THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE

Our main priority for 2011 will be to continue to co-ordinate and monitor the implementation of the priorities set out in the Strategic Plan through the Delivery Plans for each of the Priorities. Given the financial forecasts for the next three years, and the predicted structural financial deficit, these delivery plans will become increasingly important in ensuring that the priorities are delivered in an efficient and effective way so that they delivered within the resources available. It is inevitable that hard choices will need to be made.

The Strategic Plan set out a resources framework which included the intention to deliver a programme of savings to ensure that services are sustainable in the future, and to reduce the deficit caused by the economic downturn. During 2010, the Comprehensive Spending Review required all departments to identify, and commit to delivering a total of £65 millionsavings per annum by 2013. In 2011, the CSR implementation team will be co-ordinating, supporting and monitoring the significant implementation programme across departments.

It will be important to ensure that implementation reflects renewed emphasis on organisational change and effective governance. In order to make the most effective use of resources and support the ongoing organisational development programme,

As part of its own delivery plans, the department will be developing and progressing a number of initiatives.

Central Policy UnitA major part of our work will be to continue to support the Council of Ministers in their work, particularly in the co-ordination of high-level, cross organisational policy. As 2011 is an election year, it is expected that there will be a greater number of States Questions and a general increase in States business during the first 6 months of the year. Arrangements will also be developed to support the new Council of Ministersduring their induction period and in developing their strategic policy.

The promotion of sustainable population levels underpins many of our policies and will require co-ordination to ensure that any conflicts are addressed and managed. Part of this will be the continued development and implementation of the Migration Policy. This will include presenting the Migration Law to the States by the end of March, followed bythe development of a population register.

International AffairsDuring 2010, Jersey entered into a number of TIEA’s with other jurisdictions taking the number of agreements in place to 19. In 2011, Jersey’s international identity will continue to be developed and overseas contacts will be developed to explain and promote the Island, and wherever possible, by seeking to enter into agreements in our own name. Jersey will continue to meet its existing international obligations.

Jersey’s international strategy for its finance industry will continue to be developed with Jersey Finance Limited and industry. We will also need to co-operate and react to changing international standards for the regulation of financial services emerging from global action. This will include working together with the other Crown Dependencies to deal with any issues in relation to business tax.

Continued economic uncertainty and economic recovery will require the provision of quality economic advice in supporting effective management of the economy.

Law DraftingA full programme of Law drafting in 2011 will include legislation to support the implementation of the review of Income Support and to revise the Employment Law. Legislation is also likely to be required to facilitate and regulate the development of renewable energy sources; inclusion in an e-borders scheme and inclusion in the single European payments area.

During 2011, the department will also be involved in taking forward the findings of the independent review into the role of Bailiff and Crown Officers undertaken by Lord Carswell
