4.6   Deputy J.M. Maçon of St. Savour of the Chief Minister regarding introducing a mechanism to validate the signatures of those who were not able to physically sign their name on a will:

Does the Chief Minister support introducing a mechanism so that those who cannot physically sign their names on a Will are able to have it validated under Jersey law and, if so, when will this change be introduced?

Senator I.J. Gorst (The Chief Minister):

Yes, I do. The Legislation Advisory Panel are considering it at their next meeting and they hope to be able to bring forward changes for debate later next year.

Deputy J.M. Maçon:

No further questions, thank you.
