​​​Request ​789261533

Could you please provide a breakdown of what weedkillers were used in parks in each parish in 2024/25? 

Can you confirm if any of the weedkillers used contained the chemical glyphosate?

Response

The attached document provides the requested breakdown of weedkillers that were used in parks managed by the Scheduled Public Authority (SPA), namely Howard Davis Park, Coronation Park and Sir Winston Churchill Park.

The SPA does not maintain a list of weedkillers used in all parks that are not under their administration, therefore, this information is not held and Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies 

Further information may be held by the parishes so you might wish to send your information request in writing to:

FOI@comite.je

Or by post to:

Parish FOI, East Wing, RJA & HS, Trinity, JE3 5JP
