Le Gresley topped the poll with 5,798 votes. The following year he held on to his seat, in the Jersey general election of 2011.

Pharmacies

In April 2013, Le Gresley announce a change in the fees paid to local pharmacies by Jersey's Health Insurance Fund. A higher rate of £3.40 would be paid on the first 50,000 items dispensed in a year, starting on 1 May 2013. He said this would help smaller pharmacies become "more viable".[5] The estimated additional cost would be around £600,000.

gollark: Proper sandboxing is extremely hard. But if you want to protect against people/things not actively attempting to break it you can do quite well.
gollark: What happened to make you want to avoid programming anyway?
gollark: I don't really care enough about replacing DokuWiki now to pay money for it.
gollark: Well, I'm not a very good programmer, I dislike some aspects of the design but can't figure out how to neatly replace them, and I am REALLY bad at focusing on large projects.
