OUTGOING Chamber of Commerce president Paul Luxon believes the island faces four major challenges.

The Cimandis managing director came to the end of his two-year term of office at Chamber’s AGM last week when he was replaced by Schroders Private Banking chief executive Julian Winser.

And after a productive two years at the head of the Chamber council Mr Luxon (pictured) shared his thoughts on the big issues facing Guernsey, with the top one being how it was going to tackle its waste problem after voting out the Suez proposals for a second time.

‘The waste decision was critical because the people of Guernsey called for it to be made and we are now going to have to commit to changing our behaviour and making waste minimisation happen.’

The other three big issues were the island’s population demographic, finding the replacement for zero-10 corporate tax and ensuring high-calibre candidates for the next States election.
