Provision

We envisage two methods of provision of services, licensed providers and trusts or corporations. All services would be billed to users, on a base fee plus usage basis.

Licensed services

We see the licensed provider, providing services such as telephones, data links, TV and radio programmes, postal service etc each would have a license to provide a limited range of services making it possible and practical to develop the service.

Trusts or corporations

We see trusts or corporations starting as new established providers, part owned by owners of island units and/or investors. We see these having a share value, and making a profit for shareholders. We see this covering the sea wall, power generation, Hydrogen manufacture, provision and cleaning of water, waste disposal, and similar services. We expect to have a greater capacity in all areas than we utilize and we would expect several trusts to co-operate, and have a way of intercharging for passing tasks from one to another. The marina, port authority, air traffic control and various other services would similarly be trusts. The administration of just about all aspects of the kingdom we expect to be handled by trusts, from education and health to general admin and collection of rents etc. We do not envisage a civil service or council staff, but service companies carrying out agreed services for the state.

More information

You can find more information about the way we propose to run the kingdom and to provide and pay for services in the section of this system labeled 'STATE' from the home page.
