In our 2018 manifesto we pledged to introduce a rent freeze on the social housing sector and research and develop a fair rent regulation system for all sectors. As Minister for Housing and Children, our Party Leader, Senator Sam Mézec was able to introduce a rent freeze for Andium properties in 2018. While this freeze was in place Senator Mézec introduced a cap on the level at which Andium rents can be raised to ensure that they can never be raised by more than 4%. The purpose of this was to provide some level of safeguard to tenants against higher increases.

Reform Jersey’s elected States Members have lodged several amendments to the upcoming Government Plan proposition, to include several of the pledges which were included in the party’s 2018 election manifesto ‘Working for a Fairer Island’.

Reform Jersey is a growing political party, and our membership is rising. As our organisation grows, it is important for us to put policies and procedures in place that will ensure that our values are maintained, and that all involved with the running of the party act with integrity.
