The Chief Minister, Senator Ian Gorst, has made the following statement:
“The Comptroller and Auditor General’s report on the proposed acquisition of Lime Grove House for use as a new police headquarters will now be considered by the Council of Ministers and the States Employment Board.
"It is important that a report going into this kind of detail is properly considered by the appropriate bodies before any conclusions can be drawn.
“The report appears to highlight how the structure of our government impacts on the way ministers and senior civil servants work together on corporate initiatives. This is an area I have already committed to address.
“A central part of the States Strategic Plan is the reform of the public sector and the development of a flexible organisation that focuses on serving Jersey effectively and efficiently.
"Service redesign is a major aspect of this reform programme and it will mean a change in our culture, values and behaviour.”
