WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER
BY DEPUTY R.G. LE HÉRISSIER OF ST. SAVIOUR ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 2nd JUNE 2009
Question
Further to the Chief Minister's answer on 31st March 2009, when will proposed reforms to the Inheritance Law be placed before the Assembly?
Answer
The proposed draft Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) (Jersey) Law 200- was discussed at the first meeting of the Legislation Advisory Panel (LAP) on 18th May 2009.
It will be further discussed at the next meeting on the 20th July 2009. The LAP is also in the process of arranging a meeting with the new Bailiff (after swearing in) and a deputation of Jurats in order to discuss the proposed Law, and certain technical aspects which have been raised.
I fully expect that, having come to a recommendation, the LAP will report to the Council of Ministers and include a plan for the way forward.
