​Request

Since the current Housing Minister took on that role, how many empty properties have been brought back into occupation as a direct result of their policies?

Response

Information on the number of empty properties brought back into occupation as a direct result of the Minister’s policies is not held, nor is not possible to quantify this information.  Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 therefore applies.

However, some relevant information was published in a service update report on 11 October 2023. This can be accessed via the link below:
