Thursday, 14 November 2019 Ministerial response to Condor Ferries announcement Following the announcement today (Thursday 14 November 2019) by Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets (MIRA) that they have agreed the sale of Condor Ferries to The Columbia Threadneedle European Sustainable Infrastructure Fund (ESIF) and Brittany Ferries, Senator Lyndon Farnham, Jersey’s Deputy Chief Minister and Minister for Economic Development, Tourism, Sport and Culture said: “We welcome the news that Condor Ferries is to be sold to the consortium of ESIF and Brittany Ferries. The combination of a well-respected, long-term investor coupled with a proven European ferry operator provides grounds for optimism in the future development of our ferry services. “Condor Ferries provides genuinely lifeline freight and passenger ferry services for the Channel Islands. We are pleased that this announcement brings to an end a period of uncertainty regarding the future direction of Condor Ferries. The objective for the consortium, working with the Government of Jersey and the Ports of Jersey, is to provide high quality, value for money ferry services for the public of Jersey. “I am encouraged that the new investors are committed to helping Condor Ferries drive improvements in the reliability and affordability of its operations and to invest in its fleet. We look forward to working with Condor Ferries and their new owners in the months and years ahead to ensure the future success of our ferry operations.” ESIF is a new open-ended, evergreen fund that invests in European mid-market equity assets, managed by leading global asset management group Columbia Threadneedle Investments. .

Background Information on Sea Services
GD 2016/0080 Background Information on Strategic Sea Services November 2016 Department of Infrastructure FOREWORD To the Hon Stephen Rodan, MLC, President of Tynwald, and the Hon Council and Keys in Tynwald assembled. Strategic sea services are one of the most significant influences on the current and future economic and social wellbeing of the people of the Isle of Man. Tynwald recognised the importance of this in July 2016 when it debated strategic sea services and determined that a full economic appraisal be obtained to assess: a) the requirements for a ferry service; b) comparison with other similar ferry services; c) service level requirements; d) vehicle and operational requirements; e) commercial issues including length of contract and other potential models and; f) associated financial issues. Tynwald also determined in that July 2016 debate that: all ownership models should be investigated and a report produced for debate and decision by Tynwald. International economics consultants, Oxera Consulting LLP, were appointed to undertake the independent economic appraisal requested by Tynwald. Park Partners Limited of London had already been appointed by the Department of Infrastructure to provide specialist support on the strategic options for future sea services by evaluating alternative ownership models. I am pleased to present the reports produced by Oxera Consulting LLP and Park Partners Limited.
