Welcome to Vale Parish

Following a deferred election to elect four douzeniers to the Vale Douzaine, the votes have been counted and the results declared. They are as follows:

The Vale parish is holding an election for four douzeniers tomorrow, Wednesday the 15th. There are six candidates and if you live in the Vale and are on the electoral roll, you need to go to the polling station at the Vale Douzaine Room between 8am and 8pm to vote.

Hougue Jehannet, the road running through the Vale power station, should be closed permanently, the Royal Court has decided.

Changes are needed to the way deferred elections for douzeniers can be requested at parish meetings, Vale Senior Constable Richard Leale has said. He is now pressing the authorities to consider amending the law on this.

Guernsey's Royal Court is expected to hear on Monday an application to close permanently Hougue Jehannet, the road behind the Vale Power Station. This follows court papers being presented yesterday.
