NINTH AMENDMENT (P.69/2012 Amd.(9)) – AMENDMENT (P.69/2012 Amd.(9)Amd.) – COMMENTS
Presented to the States on 6th November 2012 by the Corporate Services Scrutiny Panel
STATES GREFFE
2012 Price code: B P.69 Amd.(9)Amd.Com.
COMMENTS
- The Corporate Services Scrutiny Panel has lodged 2 amendments to the draft Medium Term Financial (MTFP). One seeks to establish a growth allocation within the MTFP as envisaged in the Public Finances (Jersey) Law 2005. The second seeks the development of a performance-monitoring and reporting framework for the MTFP.
- The Council of Ministers has lodged an amendment to the Panel's first amendment and has presented comments on the second amendment. The Chief Minister has subsequently lodged an amendment to the Council's own amendment.
- In light of these developments, the Panel asked the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) to consider the Council's amendment (and that of the Chief Minister) and the Council's comments. CIPFA acted as expert advisors to the Corporate Services (MTFP) Sub-Panel during its review of the draft MTFP. CIPFA has provided the Panel with a subsequent report and the Panel has agreed that Members should be made aware of CIPFA's advice.

Statement under Standing Order 37A [Presentation of comment relating to a proposition]
These comments were forwarded to the States Greffe later than noon on Friday 2nd November 2012 as the Council of Ministers lodged its amendment to the Panel's amendment on 30th October 2012 and the Panel was made aware of the Chief Minister's amendment to that amendment on 1st November 2012. The Council's comments were subsequently presented to the States on 2nd November 2012. In order to allow CIPFA sufficient time to review these documents and to report back to the Panel, the Panel was therefore unable to present these comments earlier.
