Does his or her head roll or just another shrug of the shoulders?

From Donald McGregor.
Frankly the dreadful quality of much of the Island government is totally unacceptable or should be.
The Treasury Minister admits (JEP, 10 Jul) one of his predecessors, ie who became Chief Minister, appointed a States Treasurer who was not up to the job. On whose references did the then Treasury Minister rely? Some of us would probably know the answer.
Jersey pays its senior civil servants wonderful salaries, one assumes on the understanding that their choice was fully qualified and experienced to handle all the problems they might come across in a Jersey of 100,000 souls. Not a London of 10,000,000 souls.
We could understand very unusual engineering or scientific problems requiring extremely specialist knowledge but financial dealings are not in that category, are they, Treasury Minister? I mean converting £s to Euros should be well within the capability of one’s department.
There is a long history of quite serious criticism of the Treasury, the Minister is quoted as asking ‘Who has been in charge for the past few years?’ Does his or her head roll or just another shrug of the shoulders?
Don’t mention the crazy suspensions because we will not be told who is responsible for this fiasco. Just pay up!
