    Deutschlandfunk GESICHTER EUROPAS Samstag, 10. Mai 2014, 11.05 – 12.00 Uhr Guernsey und das liebe Geld – Das Offshore-Paradies im Ärmelkanal Eine Sendung von Tom Schimmeck Musikauswahl und Regie: Tom Schimmeck Redaktion: Simonetta Dibbern Urheberrechtlicher Hinweis Dieses Manuskript ist urheberrechtlich geschützt und darf vom Empfänger ausschließlich zu rein privaten Zwecken genutzt werden. Die Vervielfältigung, Verbreitung oder sonstige Nutzung, die über den in §§ 44a bis 63a Urheberrechtsgesetz geregelten Umfang hinausgeht, ist unzulässig. © - unkorrigiertes Exemplar – Der Wirtschaftsminister von Guernsey über das Internationale Ansehen seiner Insel: Es ist ein bisschen wie bei meiner Frau: Meistens werde ich falsch verstanden. Die Repräsentantin der Finanzwirtschaft über den Status von Guernsey: Guernsey ist ganz bestimmt keine Steueroase. Wir sind ein sicheres und vertrauliches Rechtssystem. Aber kein Bankgeheimnis. Trotzdem respektieren wir die Diskretion der Kunden. Und ein Priester über auch hier die wachsende Kluft zwischen arm und reich: Ich glaube, denen, die viel haben, viel mehr als früher, fällt es schwer zu verstehen, dass die, die wenig haben, es nicht doch besser verdienen. Guernsey und das liebe Geld - Das Offshore-Paradies im Ärmelkanal. Eine Sendung von Tom Schimmeck. 2 Das ist schon ziemlich heikel hier. Bei Springflut haben wir zehn Meter Tide. Bei Ebbe ist da nicht viel Wasser übrig. Du musst sehr genau gucken, wo Du lang fährst. Lee, 64, ist Kapitän der Fähre nach Herm. Ein Eiland in Sichtweite von St Peter Port, der Hauptstadt des Inselstaates Guernsey. Gerade ist Ebbe. Im Hafen sitzen viele Boote regungslos im Schlamm. Draußen auf See ragen überall spitze, schroffe, scharfkantige Felsen aus dem Wasser; die tückischen lauern direkt unter dem Wasserspiegel.

Inside the cafe is a great chalk board room for children to draw and be creative on rainy days. http://www.saumarezpark.com/ Delancey Park in St Sampson has a children’s play area, open field cricket pitch, small skateboard ramp and stroller-friendly walkways surrounding the park for an easy walk.

Currently there are 77 mobile mast locations in the Bailiwick (up from 71 in 2009). During the past 12 months, all three operators have added, or applied for planning consent to add more sites to the number previously reported or to share established sites with other operators, while some sites have been recovered. The information provided by the mobile operators shows that there are 31 shared sites through the Bailiwick. These are broken down by island as follows: Island Number of Sites Guernsey 63 Alderney 6 Sark 6 Herm 2 It should be noted that where we refer to ‘antennae sites’ this is used to describe all sites utilised by mobile phone companies regardless of type. The sites used vary considerably and include roof-top locations, indoor and outdoor wall mounted antenna, more traditional lattice tower structures and monopoles. Some sites feature more than one type of antenna structure. By structure type, the breakdown is as follows: Type of Mounting Number Roof-Top 26 Monopole 27 Lattice Tower 11 Outdoor Wall Mounted 10 Indoor Wall Mounted 9 Water Tower 2 This document does not constitute legal, technical or commercial advice; the Director General is not bound by this document and may amend it from time to time.
