1)  Name and brief description of the proposed decision

The subject of your CRIA may be a proposed law, policy or proposition and in accordance with the Law is

referred to in this template as the decision'

 What is the problem or issue the decision is trying to address?

 Do children experience this problem differently from adults?

The decision is to approve the change in pre-sales and pre-lets requirements contained in P.73/2010 to fund the construction of a development before The States of Jersey Development Company Limited ("SoJDC") can commit to that construction.

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

No group of children and young people are likely to be affected, other than the fact that the proposed change should enable SoJDC to commence the construction of developments sooner than under the current requirements within P.73/2010 meaning that housing needed for families will be delivered earlier.

3)  What is the likely impact of the proposed decision on children and on their rights?

 Identify any potential positive OR negative impacts and include indirect impacts on children and their rights

as described in the UNCRC

 Will different groups of children be affected differently by this decision?

There are no practical likely impacts of the proposed decision on children and on their rights.

4)  Is a full Child 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

If screening determines that a full CRIA is needed, complete Part 2
