The Bailiwick Express regrets that it cannot take credit for the Freedom of Information Law request that led to the States revealing that there is no plan in place for a zombie attack.
But it is our solemn duty to inform readers that the threat of a zombie attack is one that ministers apparently do not take seriously. Or perhaps they’re in on it. Who knows?
In response to a request submitted within days of the transparency law coming into force, the States said: “The States of Jersey do not hold any specific plan with relation to preparing for, or dealing with, a zombie attack.
“The States of Jersey Emergency Measures Plan provides overarching guidance for Emergency Services and other responders in the event of a major incident affecting the Island.”
The request specifically asked for the response plans for a localized and a global zombie outbreak.
