States A1. The Committee, with reference to Minute A3 of its meeting of 13th March 2023 Members’ received and considered a draft Report to the States regarding the scope of the Remuner- remuneration review. The Committee recalled that it had met Ms. J. Long (States ation. Members’ Remuneration Reviewer) on 13th March 2023 to discuss the scope of the
review which led to the agreement that she would be tasked to produce a report to the Privileges and Procedures Committee by 15th February 2024, and that -
• the remuneration review would be focussed on the amount of remuneration and allowances payable to elected members as specified in the States of Jersey (Amendment- Remuneration of Elected Members) (Jersey) Law 2022;
• the review would consider payments on loss of office as part of overall remuneration, but it is acknowledged that options may be limited; and
• the review would not include making recommendations on differential pay.
The Committee recalled that it had written to Ms. Long on 21st March 2023, confirming the agreed scope which had been appended to the draft Report alongside her subsequent response. The Committee noted that the draft Report also advised of Ms. Long’s intention to write to all Members setting out the approach of the review and how all stakeholders could input into the evidence-gathering phase.
The Committee approved the draft Report accordingly and directed the Principal Committee and Panel Officer to make the necessary arrangements for presenting it as a Report to the States.
