The Jersey Motor Trades Federation was hugely critical of the Budget, but Senator Frank Walker says if they want to be truly constructive they should be playing a part in the biggest consultation exercise the Island has ever seen.’If they genuinely hold those views that they have put forward in response to the Budget, I am surprised that they have turned up the best opportunity they are ever likely to have to influence the direction that these matters will take in future years,’ he said.’The motor trade have told us they have no one available to attend, which I find surprising.
I find it curious that while they make such criticism at the same time they spurn such an opportunity.’
