Chief Minister, Deputy Lyndon Farnham, says that the Government is taking active steps to manage any potential impacts on the island arising from the conflict.
Thus far, the Government has expanded the Rural Support Scheme to help offset rising fuel and fertiliser costs in the agriculture sector, and 'stands ready' to take further action if required.
We're told Jersey officials are working closely with their UK counterparts, including the Ministry of Justice, to monitor global developments and assess any future implications for Jersey.
Supply lines remain strong, and the island has sufficient fuel supplies. At this stage, we do not anticipate any disruption to availability.
Alongside this, we are working with the Jersey Consumer Council to support competition and transparent pricing, encouraging Islanders to compare fuel and food prices and make more informed purchasing choices.
