Alderney Shipping looks set to beat Huelin-Renouf to a vital contract.
The General Services Committee (GSC) has recommended Alderney Shipping retain the inter island shipping agreement, which gives a monopoly of the Alderney-Guernsey route.
The contract is due for renewal on January 1 and, after receiving tenders from Alderney Shipping and Huelin-Renouf, GSC members agreed Alderney Shipping was the preferred bidder.
Policy and Finance Committee members will debate the recommendation at their next meeting. Any decision will need to be ratified by the full States.
Alderney Shipping has served Alderney for more than 40 years, while Huelin-Renouf started a freight service to and from the island in February.
The Guernsey Bereavement Service has made three visits to Alderney over the past few months and would like to continue to help you. We are visiting the island again on
Tuesday, 23rd February 2024 and would invite anyone who feels they would like Bereavement Counselling to telephone the Bereavement Service Office on 257778 to make a time to meet one of our counsellors.
