List as Site of Special Interest: Bulwark Cottage, Le Mont du Boulevard, St. Brelade.

A formal published “Ministerial Decision” is required as a record of the decision of a Minister (or an Assistant Minister where they have delegated authority) as they exercise their responsibilities and powers.

Ministers are elected by the States Assembly and have legal responsibilities and powers as “corporation sole” under the States of Jersey Law 2005 by virtue of their office and in their areas of responsibility, including entering into agreements, and under any legislation conferring on them powers.

An accurate record of “Ministerial Decisions” is vital to effective governance, including:

  • demonstrating that good governance, and clear lines of accountability and authority, are in place around decisions-making – including the reasons and basis on which a decision is made, and the action required to implement a decision

  • providing a record of decisions and actions that will be available for examination by States Members, and Panels and Committees of the States Assembly; the public, organisations, and the media; and as a historical record and point of reference for the conduct of public affairs

Ministers are individually accountable to the States Assembly, including for the actions of the departments and agencies which discharge their responsibilities.

The Freedom of Information Law (Jersey) Law 2011 is used as a guide when determining what information is be published. While there is a presumption toward publication to support of transparency and accountability, detailed information may not be published if, for example, it would constitute a breach of data protection, or disclosure would prejudice commercial interest.

Decision(s):

The Minister for Planning and Environment determined that Bulwark Cottage, Le Mont du Boulevard, St. Brelade be added to the List of Sites of Special Interest.

Reason(s) for Decision:

  1. The special interest of Bulwark Cottage, Le Mont du Boulevard, St. Brelade as defined and in the schedule and relative to the published criteria for selection, justifies its inclusion on the List of Sites of Special Interest in accordance with the provisions and purposes of the Planning and Building (Jersey) Law 2002 and; it accords with the States Strategic Plan commitment of protecting and sympathetically managing the Island’s built heritage assets.
  2. Article 51(2)(b) of the Planning and Building (Jersey) Law 2002 enables the Minister to include on the List of Sites of Special Interest those buildings and places that the Minister is satisfied has public importance by reason of the special archaeological, architectural, artistic, historical, scientific or traditional interest that attaches to the building or place

Legal and resource Implications:

The Minister is empowered to add buildings or places to the List of Sites of Special Interest where he is satisfied they have public importance, having considered all relevant material considerations as set out in the Law. In adding a building or place to the List the Minister is then able to control certain operations not amounting to development in order to protect the special interest of the building or place.

Action required:

  1. Notify the owner
  2. Update the List of Sites of Special Interest
  3. Notify Development Control
