The Prince’s Government has confirmed that tenants in the Jardins d'Apolline complex will have their apartments returned in an impeccable condition after extensive repair work is completed.
A number of companies have been involved in repairs to the hot water supply at the buildings, which in some cases has required that tenants move out to alternative housing on a temporary basis.
In a statement issued on Thursday afternoon, on December 28, the Government said: “It is not up to a member of this group (of companies involved) to comment or determine the number of apartments concerned or the nature of the work to be done.
“The State will respect the commitment it has made to the residents of Apolline, as well as to the National Council during the budget debates,” the statement said.
