Introduction
As Jersey’s economic regulator for ports, postal services and telecommunications, and as Jersey’s competition law enforcement body, we must carefully prioritise our work to make the best use of our limited resources.
We make strategic decisions on how and where to focus our resources based on:
- Our legal remit under applicable laws
- Intelligence and analysis from research and stakeholder engagement
We take an evidence-based approach to assess how each action aligns with our strategic aims, both in the short and long term. Where appropriate, we collaborate with other regulators and agencies to ensure our efforts complement theirs.
We will only intervene when necessary to:
- Protect competition
- Improve how markets operate
Our interventions aim to:
- Promote open competition
- Encourage greater availability of products and services
- Consider Jersey’s economic scale
We focus our efforts on deterring and addressing behaviours that pose the greatest threat to consumer and citizen welfare, while avoiding unnecessary burdens on businesses.
Our goal is to allocate resources effectively to deliver real outcomes for Jersey. We prioritise projects and programmes that align with our responsibilities and have the greatest impact.
