The Government has today published the States of Jersey Annual Report and Accounts for
2022.
The report contains a wide variety of information on the performance and finances of the
entities within the States of Jersey Group. The Performance Report provides a breakdown of
the activities and initiatives carried out by Government departments and shows how taxpayers'
money has been utilised.
The Chief Minister, Deputy Kristina Moore, said: “I am grateful to everyone across the public
service for the work that has been achieved since we came to office in July 2022. This report
clearly demonstrates that we have made rapid progress in delivering and initiating necessary
change across Government and to support our community.
“2022 was a year of change for Jersey, and one that will sadly be remembered for the tragedies
that impacted our community in December.
“Our new Government Programme, which includes our Strategic Priorities, Government Plan,
Ministerial Plans and Delivery Plans ensures that the public have a clear framework against which to
hold us accountable, as we strive to reach our overarching goal of creating a community where
everyone can thrive.”
Minister for Treasury and Resources, Deputy Ian Gorst, said: “I am pleased to present the 2022
Accounts, which show that we are making continuing progress on long-term finance
sustainability and stability. Income was better than anticipated, expenditure lower than
estimated and borrowing relating to Covid has been completely repaid.
“However, we still face many financial pressures and need to return to prudence and live
within our means. Islanders want to see that they are getting value for money for the tax
contributions that they are making, which is why this report also makes clear that the new
government has set out a four-year programme focused on targeted Value for Money Reviews
and efficiencies.”
The report is available online.
