Fiscal Stimulus: Allocation to Education, Sport and Culture - grant to Beaulieu School

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While there is a presumption toward publication to support of transparency and accountability, detailed information may not be published if, for example, it would constitute a breach of data protection, or disclosure would prejudice commercial interest.

Subject:  Fiscal Stimulus Plan: budget allocation to the Education, Sport and Culture Department in relation to a grant award for Beaulieu School

Decision(s):  The Minister approved the allocation of £510,500 to the Education, Sport and Culture Department (ESC) in respect of a grant to be awarded to Beaulieu School.

 

The Minister further instructed the Chief Officer of ESC to report on spend of all stimulus monies, and project progress/performance on a monthly basis in accordance with guidelines set by the Treasury and return any unspent grant monies without limit in time.

Reason(s) for Decision:  A discretionary fiscal stimulus allocation from the Stabilisation Fund of £44m has already been approved. The approved funding of £510,500 to ESC will enable grant payments to be made to Beaulieu School, which together with the funding raised by the school, will enable provision of an appropriate facility for students with learning support needs. The allocation will be in accordance with the critical path for delivering this stimulus project on a timely basis.

Resource Implications:  Allocation of funding totalling £510,500 to the Education, Sport and Culture Department.  No manpower resource implications.

Action required:  The Fiscal Stimulus Programme Manager to inform the Education, Sport and Culture Department and the Head of Financial Performance Reporting that this Decision has been approved.
