“These are all regulations made by the Civil Contingencies Authority,” said Chairman of the island’s Policy & Finance Committee. “All have subsequently been approved by the States of Deliberation in Guernsey. They are required to be placed before the States of Alderney in order that they be ‘not annulled’.

“I would like everyone to note the speed at which the Civil Contingencies Authority was required to work in order that the regulations came into force in a timely manner.”
The regulations came into place on 16 April and will need to be formally continued every 30 days.
Alderney is represented on the Civil Contingencies Authority by Mr Dent.
