12 Oct 00- An incinerator may be the solution to the island's waste disposal problems, a packed public meeting heard this evening.

28 Oct 00- The Diocese of Winchester has confirmed that a resident vicar will not be appointed until a new vicarage is found or built by the island. The current vicarage has had over £74,000 spent on it in 1989 but remains costly to heat and maintain. It is thought to have been built in 1610 from donations from island families and there are doubts as to whether the States of Alderney own it.

31 October 00- An Italian registered tanker containing 6,000 tonnes of chemicals has sunk in gale force conditions approx 11 miles off of Alderney.

18 December 00- In a surprise move, Alderney's States have reversed an earlier decision to rescind the 4th E-betting licence as a Paris based operator has expressed interest in operating E-betting from the island. The three existing operators appear to be operating quite successfully and employ a number of local staff.
