"I cannot believe that it's appropriate in a small island of Jersey, nine by five, to have an estimated 900 vacant homes and not have a solution of how to resolve that"

Next week, Housing Minister Sam Mézec will be joined by a panel of property professionals, housing providers and a political rival for 'Housing...crisis averted?', a Question Time-style event hosted by All Island Media and sponsored by Tenn.

In the lead-up, panel chair and Bailiwick Express editor Fiona Potigny, caught up with each of the panellists. In this episode, we put five quick-fire questions to former Housing Minister Deputy David Warr.

Deputy Warr served as Jersey’s Housing Minister from 2022 to 2023, overseeing initiatives focused on increasing supply, tackling empty homes, and improving housing quality. With a background in business, he remains an active voice in housing discussions, advocating for pragmatic, long-term solutions to the island’s housing challenges.
