Adrian Lynch's family say they accept he died in an accident. | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
Good evening and welcome to the late news from BBC Channel Islands. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
Is Jersey really worth 14 billion to the UK economx? | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
More they public relations dxercise then a work of economic analysis. We | :00:25. | :00:41. | |
do not know what the origins of the money are. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
The family of Jersey man Adrian Lynch, who was missing | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
for months before his body was found, say they've been | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
brought some comfort, despite being unable to find out | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
His inquest closed today, ruling the cause of 20-year,old s | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
Adrian's family say they "truly believe" it was an "unfortunate | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
This was the moment Adrian Lynch was no longer missing. | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
His body was found here at Handois reservoir on the 4th August | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
by Jersey Water employees, dight months after he had disappe`red | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
How or why the 20-year-old electrician ended up | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
there after a work Christmas party was a mystery. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
And now, despite the inquest into his death being formally | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
Adrian's family were here for the final hearing | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
But the answers they were hoping for weren't delivered. | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
They heard from Steven Milldr - the cab driver who picked Adrian up | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
Mr Miller told Advocate Harris there was some confusion ovdr | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
I did feel slightly responshble but didn't know what else to do | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
He was quite firm about dropping him off at the road. | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
Adrian's mother, Mameal, told Mr Miller - I want you to know | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
The inquest heard that Jersdy Police had previously used specialhst | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
equipment and recovery dogs to search the reservoir, | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
but the deep water and limited access meant some areas werd unable | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
to be properly searched, including the area where Adrian was found | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
The forensic pathologist who carried out the postmortem told the inquest | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
There was no evidence of injuries or third-party involvement. | :02:24. | :02:31. | |
Dr Cook said there was no evidence to show that Ady was anywhere other | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
than the reservoir for the dntire time he was missing. | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
The Deputy Viscount summed tp Adrian's death as a tragic one. | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
It's thought he lost his wax and possibly fell or stumbldd | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
There's still lots of questhons unanswered, and no cause of death. | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
Following today's verdict, Adrian's family released | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
They say he will always be remembered for being a decent, | :02:55. | :03:23. | |
funny, caring, hardworking, fun loving young man. | :03:24. | :03:32. | |
Jersey's finance industry h`s hit back at claims the latest rdsearch | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
into its value to the UK and EU economies is nothing but sphn. | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
Last week, figures showed the industry added ?14 billhon | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
to the UK economy in 2015, but a tax campaigner has described | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
The update published last wdek said that jersey economy benefitdd by ?14 | :03:51. | :04:11. | |
billion. It included money towards building bridges, warehouses and | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
shopping malls. For the first time, the exercise was repeated looking at | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
Josay's impact on the Europdan economies. The EU benefited by 80 | :04:21. | :04:28. | |
billion euros. Not all agred it is revealed the picture of how valuable | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
temple is. It is more of a public relations exercise than a gdnuine | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
work of economic analysis. We do not know what the origins of thd money | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
are. Those huge sums of mondy flowing through Jersey and hnto | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
Europe, we need to note is that many legitimate in origin? Has it been | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
transferred legitimately? Is it going into legitimate investment? | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
Clearly some are not convinced. Those behind the research are happy. | :05:01. | :05:16. | |
Well Geoff Cook is the Chief Executive of Jersey Finance Limited | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
He joined me in the studio earlier and I put it to him | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
The first thing I would say is that it is not | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
In that sense, it is not marketing or spin. | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
It is an independent report by a firm called | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
They advise governments, employ 60 economists. | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
Five were here for nearly shx months compiling the report. | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
It is a pretty thorough piece of work. | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
Is that really beneficial to these economies? | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
We provide through Jersey, attracting money from other parts of | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
the world, in Jersey, it is packaged in the right vehicle | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
In the UK's instance, that is 500 billion sterling. | :05:53. | :06:01. | |
And in 5% of the foreign direct investment | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
It means it is 5% of all the investment that comes | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
It goes into things like warehouses, factories and offices. | :06:10. | :06:17. | |
Real things, supporting the real economy. | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
What the report doesn't show in as much detail is that there | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
is value for Jersey is well and this. | :06:23. | :06:24. | |
We are supporting a quarter of the jobs | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
The value of drugs seized in Jersey has trebled over | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
Jersey police and customs officers found one point three million pounds | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
worth of illegal drugs in 2014 so far this year they've | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
seized three point eight million pounds worth. | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
In that time 22 people have been accused of drugs | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
trafficking offences, most of them were Jersey residents - | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
and three of them were under the age of 18. | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
Guernsey Police have confirled the body found in Beaucette Marina | :06:59. | :07:00. | |
earlier this week is that of William Machay. | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
The body of the 59-year-old was discovered in the water early | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
He's not from Guernsey and his family have been told. | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
The police are not treating his death as suspicious. | :07:09. | :07:21. | |
When you make a 999 called `n ambulance it is vital peopld know | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
who the trainers are and whdre they who the trainers are and whdre they | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
are from. Wednesday morning in the London | :07:33. | :07:50. | |
ambulance control centre and a normal day. | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
But as you might expect, not so much for Guernsey, | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
where the control room is gdnerally a little quieter. | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
Back home, our control room is a lot bigger. | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
We have about 100 staff working power shift and we take 5000 | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
In Guernsey, there's about ` dozen medical emergencies each dax. | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
But the job of those taking the calls and the systems | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
Once we have the address, we will verify it. | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
And this week, two of the London ambulance team have been | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
We have been over here to mdntor the staff, observe, share | :08:22. | :08:34. | |
It is just making sure that they know they have also bought. | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
Only one call at a time, and that is the same in London. | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
Next the staff swap will happen the other way round. | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
It will be useful for them to go back to London and experience | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
the control centre there with the volume | :08:54. | :08:55. | |
it's hoped they'll be better equipped to respond to medical | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
Will we see some sunshine for the end of half term? | :09:02. | :09:10. | |
For us weather forecasters, this weather pattern is rather boring. A | :09:11. | :09:19. | |
bit dull. We keep a lot of clout for bit dull. We keep a lot of clout for | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
the next couple of days. Brhefly some sunshine. This was a great | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
photograph of the sunrise in Guernsey. The cloud has been pretty | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
change in the weather pattern. It change in the weather pattern. It | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
stays dry. Slowly some brightness. Briefly some sunny spells. The | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
reason for all of this cloud is it is trapped in an area of high | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
pressure that does not move to kill any far away from us over the next | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
24-hour is. It does move into the weekend. That made promise lore in | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
the way of sunshine. That is the position of the area of high | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
pressure for tomorrow. By S`turday it is moving further to the east. | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
can draw in some slightly clearer can draw in some slightly clearer | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
skies from France and northdrn Spain. An extensive sheet of cloud | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
overnight. A bit of missed here and there. Temperatures down to eight, 9 | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
degrees. Tomorrow the cloud is stubborn and will be with us for | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
much of the day. We may see a few holes in the cloud allowing some | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
time to come through. Light winds and a high of 14 degrees. The | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
forecast further afield is for more sunshine. Eastern parts of Spain and | :10:36. | :10:42. | |
Portugal and southern Francd. The rain extends right across northern | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
France and as far as Denmark. Here, not only rather grey but also cold. | :10:47. | :10:55. | |
12, 13 the top temperature. A lot of clout around on Saturday and a | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
better chance to see the sunshine on Sunday. Have a good night. Good | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
night. fine and dry and on the mild side. | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
