Request

Please inform about The Government of Jersey structure.

I would like to see a full organisation chart, including the names of each Department (IHE, HCS etc.), then each Office within that, team within that etc. in as much detail as you have.

So, for example IHE is formed of Infrastructure, Housing and Environment Offices then in Infrastructure there is Roads Team, Sewage Team etc., then within that there might be Maintenance, Projects etc. and please highlight the Minister(s) responsible for each lowest level team.

It is not important if it is not in one chart, but please attach each document directly (not to be found deep within some report).

Response

Information relating to the responsibilities of members of the Council of Ministers is as follows:
