Roads Committee

[1] In accordance with the Loi (1914) sur la Voirie, the Roads Committee: The Connétable presides over the Roads Committee which also includes the Rector and three Principals of the Parish (or five Principals, for St Helier) elected for a term of three years by the Parish Assembly.

Instructions are passed to Roads Inspectors whose duty it is to ensure that the repairs are carried out.

St. Helier has a larger Roads Committee which also undertakes additional non-statutory responsibilities with regard to parks and other matters.

It acts, in the absence of a municipal council, as an advisory body to the Connétable.

By convention, the two Procureurs du Bien Public of St. Helier attend meetings of the Roads Committee, but cannot vote.
