A parish official had raised a security concern which turned out to be a false alarm after a full investigation and background check.

The States of Jersey Police added: "The report was swiftly found to be a false alarm with good intention and the visit continued as planned."

The Royals are on a two-day tour of the Channel Islands, the first such visit by a Monarch since 2005.
