Explanatory Note regarding subordinate legislation tabled at this Meeting
(See Item B)
R & O 8/2000
The effect of this Order is to amend certain Parts of the Third Schedule to the Weights and Measures (Jersey) Law 1967.
The Order amends Part VII of the Schedule to include certain metric weights applicable to pre-packed potatoes and to include in the produce covered by that Part additional fruit and vegetables.
The Order also amends Part VII of the Schedule to apply metric weights in respect of permitted weights for containers and makes other consequential changes to other Parts of the Schedule.
The Order also repeals Part XI of the Schedule since the Part only applies to the pre-packing of a limited range of goods that are not in fact pre-packed from bulk in Jersey.
The Order was made on 18th January 2000 and came into force on 1st February 2000. R & O 9/2000
The purpose of this Order is to provide that persons in receipt of a War Pension from the United Kingdom and Jersey benefits should receive both those entitlements in full.
The Order was made on 20th January 2000 and came into force on 27th January 2000. R & O 10/2000
For a number of years there have been concerns as to the adequacy of the procedure in relation to applications for judicial review in civil cases and, indeed, the Court of Appeal has strongly expressed this view on more than one occasion. The main areas of concern have been the lack of any screening procedure by way of application for leave, of any time period during which such an application should be brought, of a suitable procedure by way of filing of affidavits and of a suitable limit on interlocutory proceedings in relation to such applications.
The Rules are the outcome of a prolonged consultation process and are based upon the English system with some variations to suit local conditions. The Rules therefore create a comprehensive code of procedure for the exercise by the Royal Court of its supervisory jurisdiction over the proceedings and decisions of inferior courts, tribunals or other persons or bodies which perform public duties or functions.
The Rules will come into effect on the 3rd April, 2000. R & O 11/2000
On 20th January 2000, the Superior Number of the Royal Court made the Royal Court (Amendment No. 15) Rules 2000, which provide a comprehensive code of procedure in relation to applications for judicial review in civil cases.
During the consultation and drafting process of the above Royal Court Rules, it became clear that it would be necessary to provide a comprehensive code of procedure for the Court of Appeal in relation to appeals which relate to judicial review matters and that code of procedure is embodied in these Rules.
These Rules were made on 26th January 2000 and will come into effect on 3rd April 2000.
