AN inquiry into how details of a secret States debate were published in the Jersey Evening Post and on Senator Stuart Syvret’s internet blog has recommended that no action should be taken.
The day after the ‘in camera’ States debate on the suspension of police chief Graham Power, details of the secret discussions were published.
Several unnamed States Members spoke to the JEP about what went on during the debate, particularly the suggestion that notes of the meeting at which Mr Power was suspended were shredded or burned, and that the specific rules for suspending the Chief Officer had not been followed.
The Privileges and Procedures Committee, who conducted the inquiry, criticised the JEP and Senator Syvret for their actions, but say that no action should be taken.
