Gabriel Raimondo

Deputy Raimondo was sworn in on 12 June 2026 and, as of 21 September 2026, no propositions, amendments, written questions, or ministerial statements attributable to him concerning the removal of regulatory or planning barriers to lower-cost supermarkets have been identified in States Assembly records or Jersey media. His only recorded Assembly intervention (Hansard, 30 June 2026) concerned youth job opportunities. The promise aligns closely with Value Jersey's published priority of fast-track planning for low-cost retailers, and six Value Jersey-aligned candidates were elected in June 2026, but no specific legislative or scrutiny action on this issue has been traced to Raimondo personally in his first three months in office.

Deputy Raimondo was sworn in on 12 June 2026 and, as of 22 September 2026, no evidence has emerged of him lodging a proposition, asking a question, or making a statement specifically supporting the removal of GST from food. The new Treasury Minister, Senator Alan Maclean, stated in July 2026 that removing GST from food would cost an estimated £14 million a year and explicitly ruled it out, with ministers reaffirming a broad-based GST as their preferred approach. The promise was expressly conditional ('if explored by the next government'), and the government formed after June 2026 has shown no intention of pursuing it, leaving no pathway for the commitment to advance.

Deputy Raimondo was sworn in on 12 June 2026 and has had fewer than four months of parliamentary time before the assessment date of 22 September 2026. The only traceable action relevant to this promise was an oral question asked in the 30 June 2026 sitting of the States Assembly, in which he pressed a minister on growing job opportunities in tech, biotech and the creative arts — consistent with his campaign theme but falling well short of the active advocacy (propositions, scrutiny work, or ministerial engagement) required to show progress. No proposition lodged, no scrutiny panel appointment in this policy area, and no independent reporting of any concrete step by Raimondo to simplify processes for startups or attract established businesses has been found. The short window since the 2026-2030 Assembly first sat is noted as context rather than criticism.

Deputy Raimondo was sworn in on 12 June 2026 and has had approximately 15 weeks in the 2026-2030 Assembly as of the assessment date. No propositions lodged, oral or written questions tabled, or ministerial statements on bus service expansion were found in searches of statesassembly.je, Jersey Evening Post, Bailiwick Express or ITV Channel Television records. The one Hansard appearance located (30 June 2026) concerned job opportunities for young people, not transport. LibertyBus continued to operate its existing 30-route network with no new routes or extended hours linked to Raimondo's advocacy.

Deputy Raimondo was sworn in on 12 June 2026 and the 2026-2030 Assembly first sat on 19 June 2026, leaving only approximately three months in office as of 22 September 2026. No propositions lodged, questions asked, amendments tabled, or statements made by Raimondo relating to a connected island-wide cycling network have been identified through searches of statesassembly.je, gov.je, the Jersey Evening Post, Bailiwick Express, or ITV Channel. The promise remains confined to his election manifesto as published on vote.je and jerseyvotes.org, with no recorded parliamentary action to advance it. The short timeframe since the Assembly began means this reflects an absence of early activity rather than a judgement of failure.

Deputy Raimondo was sworn into the 2026-2030 Assembly on 12 June 2026, giving him only approximately three months in office as of the assessment date. No proposition, amendment, or oral/written question by him specifically on mandatory solar panels, insulation, or air source heat pumps in new builds was found in States Assembly records or media reporting. Jersey's wider policy context shows no such regulation exists: the Policy Centre Jersey (August 2026) confirmed the island still lacks a formal energy strategy, and a planned 2026 fossil-fuel boiler ban had already been postponed with no new date. The short window since election means this assessment reflects absence of early-term action rather than a judgment of long-term failure.

Gabriel Raimondo was elected Deputy for St Brelade on 7 June 2026 and sworn in on 12 June 2026, giving him only approximately three months in office as of the assessment date of 22 September 2026. No evidence was found in authoritative Jersey sources (statesassembly.je, gov.je, jerseyeveningpost.com, bailiwickexpress.com, or stbrelade.je) of any concrete action taken by Raimondo on parish rates value-for-money, road maintenance, night-time speeding measures, or park play equipment upgrades since his election. The promise relates primarily to parish-level matters (roads, rates, parks) governed through the Parish Assembly and the Connétable, bodies which Raimondo as a States Deputy does not directly control; no record of him raising these issues formally was found. Given the very short window since he took office, the absence of evidence does not reflect poorly on the member, but no progress can yet be verified.

Deputy Gabriel Raimondo was sworn into the 2026-2030 Assembly on 12 June 2026, giving him only approximately three months in office as of the assessment date of 22 September 2026. The promise — to work collaboratively with Assembly members to improve governance efficiency — is inherently a long-term, behavioural commitment rather than a discrete deliverable. Available official records (statesassembly.je) and press reporting show he participated in Assembly business, including asking questions in the 30 June 2026 sitting on job opportunities, but no specific cross-party governance efficiency initiatives or propositions lodged by Raimondo have been identified. The short window since election makes the absence of concrete collaborative governance outcomes unremarkable, though no evidence of progress on this specific promise has been found.
