back to black, Gerd it promises to spend millions and plug deficits, | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
we would tell you out. -- Guernsey promises. | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
The Marathon man sprinting for a world championship and a place in | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
the Olympics. If I can perform well and make the most of my training, I | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
feel it is realistic. The 11 the sea and make a fortune | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
for our island but how much do you know about the secret life of | :00:41. | :00:51. | |
:00:51. | :00:52. | ||
lobsters? -- they live in this sea. Good evening. Jersey state's | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
finances could be back in the black within five years according to the | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
States Strategic Plan report. Released today it says savings | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
across departments could eradicate the island's annual deficit. But it | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
is also promising to spend �1.4 million on nine major projects. | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
It may not always seem like it but Guernsey states has a strategic | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
plan. It is what policymakers want to spend the public money on over | :01:16. | :01:26. | |
:01:26. | :01:26. | ||
the next few years and the wish- list for next year includes. | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
�328,000 for a bowel cancer screening programme. 235,000 for a | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
complete review of health and social care. �57,000 for a | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
restorative justice programme, where victims can meet the | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
offenders. 9 projects that up to 1.4 million pounds in total. So | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
where is the money coming from? we have a programme which is | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
designed to save 31 million council care annum. That is funding new | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
service developments. Perhaps more ambitious is the plan to get rid of | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
the deficit by 2016. We might all play a part in that. We can get rid | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
of the deficit through a combination of economic growth, | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
raising additional taxes and making savings inefficiencies. Other we do | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
not know where tax increases will bite, the plan is sure to cause | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
more heated debates when it goes before the States in October. | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
If you want your voice heard in Jersey's upcoming election, you | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
have just three days left to register to vote. On Wednesday, | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
19th October islanders will have the chance to elect senators, | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
connetables and deputies. Registration forms have been sent | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
out to households across the island. You can also download the form from | :02:39. | :02:48. | |
the election website. Forms need to be returned by noon on Monday. | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
is that tight. You will not know who the candidates are until | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
Tuesday or Wednesday. That will be too late. You really need to get | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
your registration form filled in and taken to your parish hall by 12 | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
o'clock on Monday morning or you will be too late. | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
Up to 10 jobs are to be created when the UK fashion chain Jack | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
Wills opens a store in Jersey. The company is linked to the American | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
brand Abercrombie & Fitch. The Channel Island store will open | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
hearing King Street in November at the premises which used to house | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
the jewellers CT Maine. It has been confirmed the Red | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
Arrows will appear Jersey in Guernsey's Battle of Britain air | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
display next week. Following the death of Flight Lieutenant Jon | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
Egging in Bournemouth last month, there was uncertainty as to whether | :03:37. | :03:45. | |
the flight squad would attend. But their PR team says they are | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
scheduled to fly on Thursday. Later in Spotlight with Justin and | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
Victoria - the dog who fell 50ft from his hotel balcony and | :03:53. | :04:03. | |
miraculously survived. In sport, Team GB have already got | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
five medals at the athletics world championship in South Korea. This | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
weekend a Guernseyman is hoping to make it six. Marathon runner Lee | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
Merrien will be battling hot and humid conditions in Daegu. But a | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
championship medal is not his only goal. He needs to finish in the top | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
20 in order to qualify for next year's London Olympics. Mike | :04:22. | :04:30. | |
Wilkins caught up with him before he set off. That chances are you | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
have seen Guernsey's running man - Lee Merrien putting in the miles | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
around the island. All that hard work is paying dividends as he is | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
now representing Great Britain at the World Championships in South | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
Korea. He will need to stretch himself to finish in the top 20, in | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
order to qualify for the London Olympics. I have to focus on what I | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
am doing but at the end of the day, other athletes can perform really | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
well and if they are more than 20 of them, I will get pushed out of | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
that spot. I can only control what I'd do. If I can perform well and | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
make the most of the training I have done, then I feel that is very | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
realistic. I will certainly do my best to achieve it. This Sunday he | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
will be giving it his all and it will be nerve-racking for some | :05:22. | :05:29. | |
spectators. West are watching him I am very nervous at the beginning. I | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
am just thinking, what if something goes wrong. He has put all that | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
work into it and at the last minute, it is just one race. Especially now | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
when he has moved up to the Marathon when he only does one or | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
two a year. He has made sure he is in tip-top shape by slipping in an | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
altitude tent to help him prepare for the heat and humidity. It looks | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
like something strange. It is airtight and is fairly spacious for | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
an altitude tent. The next time you see them, he will be going for gold | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
as he aims to win and achieve his dream of qualifying for the | :06:10. | :06:18. | |
Olympics. Very good luck to them. | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
It is an industry worth several million pounds in Jersey. For some | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
it is a fine dining treat. Lobster fishing had his most successful | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
year in 2010 as local fishermen cot record amounts. How much do we know | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
about the creatures? You can find out about a -- you can find out at | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
a free talk next week. Our reporter set off to find out about the | :06:44. | :06:54. | |
:06:54. | :06:58. | ||
secret life of lobsters. You may recognise them from your | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
dinner table but these lobsters are the single most fish species in | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
Jersey. In an industry worth more than �3 million, the Jersey | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Fishermen's Association is one of two in the world to gain | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
international status for best practice. What do we know about | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
these creatures and the way they behave? You can find out at a free | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
presentation on Monday evening. It is called the Secret Life of | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
lobsters. He is John Thomson, the president of the Fishermen's | :07:31. | :07:38. | |
Association. -- here is. Obviously, pointing to the fact that it is a | :07:38. | :07:45. | |
super important fishery for us and worth about �7 million. He how | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
important is lobster in Jersey? you mentioned, �3 million in the | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
fishery and it is the single most important species. We have other | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
species like crab but without lobster, the fleet would cease to | :08:00. | :08:08. | |
exist. What happens to these now? These lobsters - we will put them | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
back in the store box and next week they could end up in Italy, France | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
or Spain. They have a few miles ahead of them. They will travel a | :08:19. | :08:27. | |
bit. Thank you very much. That presentation is on Monday evening | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
at 7 o'clock at the St Helier Yacht Club. But now he's got back into | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
the water where they belong for the time being. | :08:35. | :08:42. | |
