Petition Establish an Independent Environmental Regulator for Jersey
Jersey’s environmental protection is compromised by conflicts of interest and weak enforcement. An independent regulator will ensure transparent monitoring, safeguard our water and land, and restore public trust by holding polluters to account.
More details
Reports confirm PFAS, nitrate, and sewage pollution. Current oversight is not independent, and many decisions lack transparency. Other countries have stronger protections. We call for a regulator with legal powers to investigate, enforce, and inform the public—free from political or commercial influence—to match international best practice and protect our environment for future generations.
