Licenced dwellings registrations as of 31 July 2024 (FOI)

​​Request

A

How many registrations for Licences dwellings were received by 31 July 2024? 

B

Based upon information available to the Government of Jersey, how many dwellings have so far failed to apply for registration?

Response

A

In order to issue a licence, a valid payment must be received. As of 31 July 2024, a number of applications were awaiting payment, therefore applications had been submitted prior to 31 July (and subsequently issued with a date prior to 1 August), however the actual licences had not been issued at that stage.  

The table below shows how many applications had been received and also the number of Licences Issued:

B

Information on how many dwellings have so far failed to apply for registration is not held by the Government of Jersey, therefore Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies.
