WQ.80/2018

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE PRIVILEGES AND PROCEDURES COMMITTEE

BY THE CONNÉTABLE OF ST. BRELADE ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 26th JUNE 2018

Question

Further to situations which arose during the recent elections in respect of the nomination form for election candidates and the resultant court appearances, will the Chairman agree to request the Committee to review the Public Elections (Jersey) Regulations 2002 and, in particular, the prescribed form of the nomination document (Form 3) in order that a simpler, revised version with guidance notes may be brought forward for the Assembly to consider?

Answer

Yes. I will be proposing to the Committee that we review all of the issues raised by the election observation mission at last month's election, including the usability of the candidate nomination form.
