STATES OF JERSEY
STANDING ORDERS: MINIMUM LODGING PERIODS – REVISION (P.194/2010) – COMMENTS
Presented to the States on 31st January 2011 by the Privileges and Procedures Committee
STATES GREFFE
2010 Price code: A P.194 Com.
COMMENTS
Although a simple system of 2 and 6 week lodging periods was incorporated into Standing Orders following the States' decision to move to a system of ministerial government, the then Privileges and Procedures Committee had initially also thought of including a 4 week lodging period for certain categories of propositions1. This was changed following representation from States members in order to reduce the complexity of the system2.
Ultimately it is a matter for members to determine whether the 4 week lodging period should be considered.
