4. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Minister for Home Affairs –
“Will the Minister inform Members of the circumstances that led to the recent abortive search of a property in St Ouen, is he satisfied that appropriate steps were taken to allay a sense of grievance and, given the difficulty in identifying addresses particularly in rural parishes, is the Minister of the view that before States Police execute searches they should liaise with the Chef de Police of the relevant parish?”
9. Senator S.C. Ferguson will ask the following question of H.M. Attorney General –
“If an officer employed by the States, when discussing a problem with a member of the public tells that person not to contact any politicians about the problem, is that officer guilty of contempt of the States Assembly?”
11. Deputy T.M. Pitman of St. Helier will ask the following question of the Minister for Home Affairs –
“Will the Minister confirm whether he was ever advised by the Chief Minister that the former Chief Officer of the States of Jersey Police had requested, on 3rd April 2010, that his response to the Wiltshire Report should be published?”

Right here we are as promised Christie Tucker Trying her best. I suppose at lest we had this program then, it was a two hour program with two people now only for a hour with news, weather & they play records on a Thursday evening with only one person. So there's the BBC working for the people! I think not.

Well at last I’ve upload the Audio from the Talkback program that went out on Sunday morning the 21/03/10.
We had Senator La Marquand & Deputy Le Herissier. Talking about the ACPO report that had been published on the Voice for Children & Stuart Syvret’s Blog site’s.
I’ve gone thought the recording & it’s too hard to say what should or what shouldn’t be cut from it, so I’ve uploaded the lot. I’ve divided it up into 15 part’s, So tonight I have put up the first 7 & I’ll put up the remaining 8 in the next few days.
It really is a must listen with old unflappable La Marquand losing it a few times & old Roy Le Herissier with so many splinter’s in his bun from sitting on the fence, he went home after this to make a dinning room table.
Rico your on the part 5 & VFC your on part 7.
Hope it’s going to be useful.
Part 1.

Senator La Marquand should go & live down under, where Kangaroos are common place. His jumping around not doing interview's then does when told he is going to look stupid if he does not. That is what happened the other night, so he was forced to do the interview.
Here is another one of our Minister of Home Affair's speech's in the the States & you can tell he can't stand Mr Power & Mr Harper & he is going to do anything posible to blame these two for everything, even if he has to break the law & spend million's in made up report's, sorry "ourchap report's". You would think all this came out of Fiction book.
He was speaking on Deputy Tadier's Amendment on having a Committee of inquiry.
Just like to point out that if you did not catch it, you would have heard Senator La Marquand name Mr Harper, that alone is not alowed & Mr Harper's name should be taken off of Hansard. But he also called him an "incompetent maverick" I myself think the term sum's up the Senator quite well ! & you would have noticed that no one apart from Deputy Tadier pulled him about this. It is common that if one of the not in "the in crowd" say a member of the public's name they get shouted down by the Establishment. But not this time because they are all in the cover up & the fall guy's are Mr Power & Mr Harper. The Truth needs to come out but it's not the Establishments side that the majority of this Island gets to hear. The Fight goes on.
Now you must go back & have a read & watch the Video's on Rico Sorda's Blog. You can see them Here

Today our Home Affair's Minister published a redacted version of the Wiltshire Report, without Mr Power the right of reply, ie publishing Mr Power's 62,000 word defence to Wiltshire report.
So have a listen to the Interview that happened on BBC Radio Jersey at 5 O clock this evening below.
I will say the Gloves are off. Senator La Marquand is making it up as he goes along, I Know who I believe & it certainly is not the Senator.
Senator Le Gresley proves he does he's research & puts our Minister for Home Affairs right.
First of all we had Senator Le Marquand giving his point of view in the debate on Deputy Bob Hill's Amendment.
Then the next day Senator Le Gresley came back with the left hook to put Senator Le Marquand in his place & with some interesting fact's that Senator Le Marquand did not want us to hear.
Now here with have Senator Le Gresley talking on Radio Jersey Friday evening on how he thinks it all went. I can't help but think the presenter was not to happy or something about having a Inquiry, or am I reading to much in to it.
Have to say a Big Thank You to Senator Le Gresley, he has certainly got off in to the swing of things quickly & on the right side.
Thanks go to Deputy Bob Hill & Deputy Tadier is well.
"You have all done well"
These 6 did not speak on the Committee of inquiry as that had just been amended.
Deputy Duhamel you are so lucky that I for some reason or other have NOT "to my disapointment" got your ramballings about Cold weather Payments to the Old. But anyone can read them on Hansard. Or your Christmas Speach.
Do not think you can sit at the back & say nothing, we do have memory's. Role on the Elections.
Connetable Murphy,
Connetable Refault.
Senator Maclean
Deputy Gorst.
Senator Le Marquand.
Here we have 4 more of the 11 Jersey Politicians that could be bothered to speek on there reason's NOT to vote for the Committee of inquiry as that had just been amended.
Deputy Pryke.
Deputy Noel.
Senator Ozouf.
O yes I nearly Forgot our Dear Leader Senator Le Sueur.
Deputy Jeune I put up the other night, made the 5 up.
This woman should not be any were near the States building let alone Sitting in it representing the people of St Brelade No. 1.
She hardly ever speaks & when she does, you have to scratch your head & think what on earth is she on about. She must sit in the States listening to Woman’s Hour! Because there is know way she is listening to the Debate.
She just wants to be in with the COM. All ways votes the way Senator Ozouf wants his Lamb’s to vote.
She said her Husband went to Haute de la Garenne & does not want a committee of enquiry & all her friend’s say the same. Well I know someone that went there & he said he had a good time there, but that does not mean that things did not happen there, he or her husband & her Friends were not the Chosen one’s, because like my friend he is not quite so they could not shut them up so they were not ever going to be Special.
Deputy Jeune you are embarrassing & you do not deserve to keep your seat Latter this year. I will do my bit to get you out.
Have a Listen to what she had to say today on the Debate on having a COI.
HEALTH Minister Anne Pryke has admitted she got the salary of the new Hospital director wrong in the States this week.
She has apologised to her States colleagues and blamed the error – which led to her saying that Andrew McLaughlin was being paid £26,000 a month – on a miscalculation.
The JEP reported on Wednesday that Mr McLaughlin’s contract was costing the taxpayer £26,000 a month, resulting in a £312,000 annual salary.
But in a joint statement released yesterday afternoon by Deputy Pryke and her Assistant Minister, Deputy Eddie Noel, they said that Mr McLaughlin’s contract was actually worth £216,000 a year, equating to £18,000 a month.

In these times when we are all been made to cut back on everything, do you thing it is right that our Minister for Health should be so at ease in the justification of paying a The Director of the Hospital £26,000.00 a Month.
We could have 10 more Staff Nurses for that amount. Is there anyone anywhere in the World that is worth that money in a States sector of Government ?
In our Only dally paper it say’s “ Fury at Hospital chief’s pay deal”. So that will be the end of this Story, I say that because that is what happens over here, the Head line has been made, The peasants will of forgotten by Monday. So they wont ask any more question’s about it. I hope I’m wrong because this is big.
We need to be told what he has done so far & not with spin. With all that is going on at the moment we could be forgiven if we do forget about this one, but I wont. Because that Hospital in my opinion is not up to the job.
You can Listen to the Minister giving her answer Here.
8. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Chief Minister –
“Was part (d) removed from the Terms of Reference on 9th April 2010 following a discussion between the Deputy Chief Executive and Mr Napier and, if so, was that fact made known to the Chief Minister when he signed the Ministerial decision on 13th April 2010 approving the appointment of Mr Napier and for his CV and Terms of Reference, containing the original part (d), to be included in R.39/2010?”
9. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Minister for Home Affairs –
“Will the Minister inform Members of the cost of the Metropolitan Police Review of the Haut de la Garenne investigation and of redacting the Wiltshire Report; advise when the rest of that report will be published in line with assurances made in July 2010 and in R.8/2011 and whether the statements made to the Wiltshire Police by the former Chief Officer of the States of Jersey Police will be published?”
To go with the Voice For Children Latest Blog Posting ,Here is the Audio from that interview on radio Jersey about the reason's for not having an Committe of Inquiry into the Child Abuse Scandel.
We need an Inquiry into why Senator Le Marquand is our Home Affair’s Minister!
Here are the 3 Audio recording's from today. I can not workout how Deputy Power is not going to be Prosecuted!
Now that is 3 States Members that have been found guilty of Data Protection, but only One has been Charged. One rule for Stuart Syvret & one for the rest of them.
This is the Interview of Deputy Power by Roger Bara.
17. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Chief Minister –
“Following the Chief Minister’s written answers on 18th January 2011, will he advise the actual date Mr Napier was instructed to withdraw part (d) of the Terms of Reference and, given the Affidavit’s significance to the suspension of the former Chief Police Officer explain why neither he nor the Deputy of St Martin who were supposed to have oversight of the review were consulted before the decision was taken?”
From about 5m 30s in, it gets really interesting. They started talking about the Police being to heavy handed with children & he said may be with out thinking, that it used to be a lot better. So when was it Better before Warcup or before Power. You can here that he realises that he may of said something that he really shouldn’t of.
“How can someone be a minister and entrusted with education sport & culture who can't even form a coherent or indeed intelligible sentence?”
Well below is our Minister for Health & you can say the same. This was one of her better performances, Start’s out ok put when she has finished reading out the prepared statement & has to answer questions on the hoof . It all start’s to get a bit difficult. I Know she has a stammer, so do I sometimes, but I’m not Minister for Health.
Surely we should have people that can string a coherent sentence together. Because at the end of the day people are expected to get & under stand what is being said to them there & then with out having to say “ can you say that again” or think “well I didn’t want her embarrassed”.
So what do you think of this £1m spent on Doctors doing nothing, when the Hospital is having to have patient treatment cut back.
15. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Minister for Health and Social Services –
“Will the Minister inform Members of the number of doctors who, although not suspended, are not permitted to carry out their normal duties; outline what impact such restrictions are having on patient care, the individual doctors and their colleagues and advise the cost to the public to date in respect of locum hire to cover the period of restriction?”
8. Deputy M. Tadier of St. Brelade will ask the following question of the Minister for Education, Sport and Culture –
“Following the Minister’s statement 6th December 2010 that all allegations against members of staff at the Education, Sport and Culture Department relating to historic abuse cases had been thoroughly investigated by the appropriate authorities and concluded, will he now follow the precedent of the Wiltshire enquiry and publish a redacted version of the investigation reports?”
I thought Bill Ogley told our sacked Police Chief that no one was going to get his mate, they would have to go though him first. So the Police if Ive got this right Have Not Investigated The Person in Question.
Jersey police have announced the end of a three-year long investigation into historic child abuse in the island's care homes.
From September 2007, police took 1,776 statements from 192 victims, identifying 151 alleged abusers.
Seven people were successfully prosecuted in Operation Rectangle, which cost £7.5m.
The investigation began after allegations of abuse at former children's home Haut de la Garenne.
More than half the alleged offences were committed at the home and more than half of the offences reported were sexual. The rest were assaults or claims of neglect and ill treatment.
Although there were no more prosecutions expected in the historic abuse inquiry, Jersey police said they would continue to thoroughly investigate all allegations of abuse.
Thirty of the alleged offenders had died before they could be prosecuted.
Those found guilty were:
Gordon Claude Wateridge was found guilty of assault on three girls while he was a house parent at Haute de la Garenne between 1969 and 1979.
Claude James Donnelly was jailed in June 2009 for 15 years for rape and indecent assault.
Michael Aubin was given two years probation for various sexual offences at Haut de la Garenne between 1977 and 1980
Ronald George Thorne was spent 12 months in prison for gross indecency between 1983 and 1984
Leonard Miles Vandenborn was ailed for 12 years for the rape and indecent assault of two young girls in the 1970s and 1980s.
Morag and Tony Jordan, former house parents at Haute de la Garenne, were found guilty of assaulting children in their care. The couple, of Angus, Scotland, will be sentenced in January.
David Warcup, Acting Chief Officer of the States of Jersey Police, said: "Investigations of this nature are particularly difficult and protracted, especially for the victims, and officers have worked hard to ensure that the needs of victims have been met.
"Every allegation or complaint has been given full and proper consideration and all possible lines of enquiry have been pursued.
"At this point in time, there is no evidence from which it would be possible to mount any further prosecutions.
"Should evidence become available then the force will review this to determine what, if any, further action should be taken."
That’s what’s on our Local BBC’s Web Site. Not a Lot.
There could & there should be more questions asked. Investigative Journalism That’s what we want over here.
NOT WHAT WE’VE GOT.
The JEP just do as there told by our Government, Channel TV the same but when the our local BBC do it that is out of order.
Why can’t they find out why there was ONLY 8 People prosecuted out of a possible 121 alleged offenders. It may take a bit of hard work & some difficult question’s, but WHY do there just lie down & take the Government Line.!
Here’s one person that has got more Ball’s then anyone at our good old BBC. But he’s not a Journalist he’s someone that care’s.
On Radio Jersey 12.10pm. 14/12/10.
Now Lessen to this. ITV 22.35pm. 14/12/10.
This is from a Program I just happened to come across last night.
Here we have Fran Unsworth. BBC Head of newsgathering & David Manion. Editor in Chief, ITV News. Both Were on The War You Don’t See. By John Pilger.
They are discussing the war in Iraq, I know its some what off subject, but John Pilger is asking why did they not Investigate the Government’s Line at the time of why were we going to war more thoroughly, It could of saved Hundred’s of Thousand’s of Life’s!
So the BBC are able to question the Government & take them to Task but only if that is what they want to do!
We need to Question the BBC in what is there role, is it to just repeat the Government Line or is it to Question & Scrutinize the Government Line. We are lead to believe what the BBC tell us, not left with more Question’s then Answer’s.
Very good program well worth a watch. We need the likes of John Pilger over here.
4. Deputy S. Pitman of St. Helier will ask the following question of the Minister for Education, Sport and Culture –
“Following the naming of a senior Civil Servant from the Education, Sport and Culture Department in court by alleged victims within the current historic abuse proceedings, will the Minister give members and parents assurances that the matter has been fully investigated by his department?”
14. Deputy T.M. Pitman of St. Helier will ask the following question of the Chief Minister –
“Will the Chief Minister inform Members of the dates when Mr. Napier visited Jersey in connection with his review and what the total cost of his review was?”
I am sorry about the sound interference on the Audio, it was out of my control.
9. The Deputy of St. Martin will ask the following question of the Chief Minister –
“Given that the explanations given as to why and when the Napier Terms of Reference were altered refer to decisions taken after R.39/2010 was presented to the States, will the Chief Minister inform Members when this was done and who was party to the decision and explain why he and the Deputy of St. Martin were not party to the discussions?”
