Response
Please find below, copy text of the formal agreement that is in place between the States of Jersey Development Company and the Transport and Technical Services Department for the Esplanade car park. No formal agreement yet exists for Les Jardins car park but any formal agreement is likely to take a similar form or be an extension of the document below.
