Guernsey Deputy Scorecard

AN INDEPENDENT RECORD OF EVERY PROMISE MADE IN THE STATES OF GUERNSEY

← All deputies

Jayne Ozanne

Vice-President, Committee for Employment & Social Security

In the States since July 2025

Jayne Ozanne

Jayne Ozanne stood on a platform centred on housing accessibility, workforce stability, and fairer public services. A recurring theme across her pledges was the need for practical, partnership-driven solutions to Guernsey's structural challenges, with particular emphasis on protecting vulnerable islanders while pursuing sustainable economic growth.

Among her most significant specific pledges, Ozanne proposed a Savings Deposit Property Scheme allowing first-time buyers to draw on ten years of secondary pension contributions — matched by their employer — to fund a house deposit. She also committed to pushing the States to work creatively with landowners and developers to increase housing supply and make better use of existing stock, alongside finding tailored solutions for older islanders wishing to downsize.

On public services, she pledged to introduce a Key Worker Retention Plan to improve consistency across essential services, with particular focus on teachers. She also proposed introducing means-testing to ensure fair access to health and social care, and committed to pursuing a tax system that removes what she described as unfair tax caps while providing targeted cost-of-living support to those most in need. Rebuilding public trust through improved political accountability and communication featured as an overarching commitment throughout her campaign.

Amendments tabled

Every amendment this deputy has lodged with the States' Greffier, and what became of each. This is a record of what they proposed, not of how they voted, and it does not feed the kept-rate: an amendment the Assembly never reaches never produces a vote on its substance.

To amend section 3C of the Open Market Housing Register (Guernsey) (Amendment) Law, 2025 ("the Amendment Law") to the extent necessary to permit a person who owns an Open Market Part A property to make an application to delete from the Register the inscription of that property and inscribe a new property in Part A of the Register for the purpose of downsizing even if the person does not own both properties at the same time. 2.

    As of September 2026, no policy letter, States proposition, consultation, or official announcement specifically introducing means-testing for health and social care services was found in Guernsey parliamentary records or independent reporting. Deputy Ozanne, serving as Vice-President of the Committee for Employment and Social Security since July 2025, publicly endorsed the principle of means-testing during the July 2026 tax debate (Guernsey Press, 17 July 2026), but only in relation to a child tax allowance amendment, not to health and social care access. The ESS committee's legislative output (parliament.gg) covers long-term care insurance uprating, minimum wage, and discrimination law, with no traceable means-testing proposal for health or social care services.

    Economy And Business
    No recorded vote - delivery verdictUnverifiablelow confidence

    Deputy Ozanne took office in July 2025 as Vice-President of the Committee for Employment & Social Security, a committee whose mandate centres on social security, benefits and labour market policy rather than economic development or leveraging Guernsey's financial and physical strengths. Her recorded parliamentary activity through to mid-2026 (parliament.gg) focused on health and safety, tax reform sursis, budget amendments and safeguarding — none of which directly correspond to the broad economic-growth promise. While the States as a whole agreed a 2026–2029 Government Work Plan in January 2026 and the Committee for Economic Development published a 2026–2029 workplan targeting growth, no evidence was found linking Ozanne personally to those initiatives or to any specific action she led on leveraging Guernsey's unique strengths for economic growth.

    Deputy Ozanne actively pursued her manifesto commitment on fair taxation throughout 2025–26, but without decisive success. In October–November 2025, she co-tabled a budget amendment to reduce the fuel duty increase from 4.3% to 2.3% on cost-of-living grounds, which was defeated 6–30 (Island FM, November 2025; parliament.gg). In July 2026, she and Deputy Bury lodged a late amendment to the 2026 Tax Reform Package directing that longer-term tax planning must include an independent examination of wealth and asset-based taxation, explicitly framing it as a manifesto promise (Guernsey Press, July 2026); however, that amendment was among those lost or not fully debated before the States ran out of time, with the full debate adjourned to 30 September 2026 (Offshore Group CI, August 2026). Tax caps remain in place, no removal of unfair caps has been legislated, and the overall package—including a proposed 3% GST from 2028 with offsetting benefit uplifts—remains undecided as of the assessment date.

To agree that, should the States decide in the second quarter of 2026 to adopt Workstream 1 of the Tax Reform proposals, a. the individual standard rate of income tax shall be reduced to 15%, with 20% becoming an individual higher rate of income tax; and the higher rate will apply at a defined threshold (£32,400) as agreed on 8 November 2024, with appropriate adjustments to reflect the impact of inflation between that date and the date of implementation;

    No recorded vote - delivery verdictUnverifiablelow confidence

    No independent reporting or official States records surfaced any specific initiative, consultation, or programme led or co-led by Deputy Ozanne that directly enacted her manifesto promise to work proactively in partnership with the private and third sectors to deliver public goals. Deputy Ozanne's recorded parliamentary activity from July 2025 to September 2026 centred on her Vice-Presidency of the Committee for Employment & Social Security, her brief membership of the ESC (from which she resigned in November 2025 for personal reasons), and amendments on budget and employment matters; none of these were specifically framed around cross-sector partnership delivery. While her manifesto and a secondary encyclopaedic summary reference 'partnerships with private and third sectors' as a stated priority, no authoritative Guernsey source (gov.gg, parliament.gg, Guernsey Press, Bailiwick Express) corroborated any concrete cross-sector partnership activity attributable to her.

    No evidence was found of Deputy Ozanne having initiated, promoted, or contributed to any specific policy, proposition, consultation, or public statement directly addressing the promise to re-establish a balanced workforce with an even spread of ages and skills. Her recorded parliamentary activity on parliament.gg (as of September 2026) covers health and safety amendments, contributory benefit rates, tax reform, and budget matters, but nothing specifically targeting workforce age or skills balance. Related broader initiatives — such as the Guernsey Institute Adult Skills Strategy (December 2025) and age discrimination protections — were driven by other bodies, not by Ozanne.
