The advice not to swim in St Aubin’s bay has been lifted.

People can return to the bathing in the sea in the bay following the latest water test results.

Tests at the Sewage Treatment Works on Friday show it is ‘returning to normal’.

On Thursday people were advised not to go in the water amid concerns the STW was not working as it should be.

The advice not to swim in the bay has been lifted with immediate effect.
