  2. 'Obesity is everyone's business'

    BBC Radio Guernsey

    Education alone will not help tackle the current child obesity problem in Guernsey, according to the Health Improvement Commission.

    New figures show almost one in six children in Guernsey aged five and six are overweight or obese.

    Dr Simon Sebire says responsibility to overturn the problem doesn't only lie with parents.

    Quote Message: Education alone - I'm afraid to say - will not solve obesity. We need to work alongside people to create environments which are, by default, healthier than unhealthier. Yes, parents are important, but obesity is everyone's business. from Dr Simon Sebire Chief Executive, Health Improvement Commission

  3. Public consulted on Jersey's housing demands

    BBC Radio Jersey

    The public is being consulted on how Jersey can meet housing demands for a growing population, while also protecting the countryside.

    The States are asking whether developments should happen in town or the outer parishes as part of the new 10-year Island Plan.

    The survey can be found of the government website and a series of public meetings and workshops are being held around Jersey in July and September.

    Quote Message: The importance of looking after and preserving Jersey's environment was a crucial finding of the Future Jersey opinion survey to set our government plan. I don't see that changing. But equally we have to be able to have a sustainable economy. That doesn't mean an economy at any price, it means a sustainable one that we can all live with and one that doesn't destroy the island but also provides for community needs and most important to that is homes for people to live." from Deputy John Young Minister for Planning and Environment

  4. Ownership information 'extremely useful' to law enforcement

    BBC News Online

    A statutory review into the Channel Islands process of sharing beneficial ownership information with UK law enforcement agencies has described the process as "highly valuable".

    Exchange of Notes (EoN) for information sharing came into force on 1 July 2017, whereby the Crown Dependencies and other UK overseas territories would allow access to their private registers of company ownership.

    "The arrangements have increased in effectiveness since their introduction as initial administrative challenges and misunderstandings have been resolved", the review concluded.

    Since the system was implemented the Channel Islands have complied with 44 requests, 26 in Jersey and 18 in Guernsey.

    Quote Message: This review highlights that Jersey is committed to sharing beneficial ownership information with law enforcement agencies. As a leading international finance centre we take our responsibilities seriously to ensure we are global leaders in transparency, tackling money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism. from Senator Ian Gorst External Relations Minister, Jersey

    Following that successes he was approached to be in his own TV series on ITV4.

    He said filming for Speed Freaks has now finished and that it was an "amazing" show to make.

    Quote Message: The idea of presenting a TV show focusing on all the crazy tuning, engineering, preparation for land speed racing seemed to be a good idea and it's ended up being really, really phenomenal. I've seen all the episodes and it's just total, full-on adrenaline throughout every single episode." from Zef Eisenberg
