The decision is to approve the new Articles of Association of The States of Jersey Development Company Homes Limited ("SoJDC"), a company wholly owned by the States of Jersey. The new Articles have a number of benefits including being in accordance with modern corporate governance standards and being largely consistent with the Articles of other States-Owned Entities and are not being adopted as a result of any specific problem or issue. |
2) Which groups of children and young people are likely to be affected? Groups of children could include early years, primary or secondary education; young adults; children with additional learning needs; disabled children; children living in poverty; children from particular ethnic backgrounds; migrants; refugees; care experienced children and LGBTQ+ children |
The proposed new Articles of Association simply govern the internal corporate governance and operations of the Board of Directors of SoJDC and the Company itself. Since this is largely administrative in nature, no group of children and young people are likely to be affected. |

There are no practical likely impacts of the proposed decision on the children and on their rights. |
4) Is a full Children's Rights Impact Assessment required? If you have identified impacts on children and their rights, a full CRIA should be completed. If no impacts are identified then a Full CRIA is not required, but please explain your rationale and how you reached this conclusion |
No |
