WQ.451/2019
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR EXTERNAL RELATIONS
BY DEPUTY M. TADIER OF ST. BRELADE
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 22nd OCTOBER 2019
Question
Following the recommendations of the Clothier Review', the Carswell Review' and the Independent Jersey Care Inquiry that the Bailiff , as the Island's chief justice, should cease to act as President of the States, will the Minister provide his assessment of the impact, if any, that any lack of action by the Government in implementing those recommendations will have on the Island's relations with the international community?
Answer
The recommendations made by the Reviews and the I.J.C.I. that the Deputy identifies are matters to be debated and implemented by the States Assembly as they see appropriate.
The international governments with which we engage recognise the primacy of the States Assembly in deciding matters regarding our own membership and structure, including the acceptance or otherwise of recommendations from reviews.
