    May I add my support to Berns posting above. Over here one can only claim any type of benefit after you have completed at least 6 months in employment.So basically a traveller arriving in Jersey just can't go to the local dole office and expect a handout,as is the case in Dover where people travel from all over the UK to Dover, and get their money by the seaside.

    The benefits system is an integeral part of our society but needs an overhaul. I could go on about stopping child benefits to parents earning over £50k,a back to work payment instead of dole money ie so you can continue to receive a top-up benefit payment once back at work therefore making it financially more attractive to go back to work without losing all your housing and council tax relief payments.

    Less stigma attached to benefit payments could be avoided by maybe home visits for the elderly or less abled etc.
