Scrutiny to monitor increasing population

Last week the Jersey Population Estimate revealed that net migration soared to 1,500 last year – its highest level since the States Statistics Unit started annual records in 2001.

According to the estimate, Jersey’s population was about 102,700 at the end of 2015.
