During the States debates on the www.jerseyfsc.com and www.jfsc.com sites on Tuesday it emerged that a potential deal had been set up to sell the sites to the commission for £60,000.
But JFSC chairman Colin Powell has written to the Senator to tell him that they are not interested and that they have bought 45 other sites – for a total of £6,735 – with similar domain names to try to stave off the possibility of further websites being set up and being critical of the organisation.
Senator Vibert says the sites will continue as they are and that he has no plans to stop using them or change the information on them.
The commission met the day after the States agreed to ask the Senator not to use websites with similar names to the commission’s and to remove from the sites allegations about the JFSC director general, David Carse, and deputy director general, Helen Hatton.
