Please do let us know any comments but we hope all is covered or Philip has enough to rework. Please let us know if we can assist further. Kind regards Media response line in respect of a BREXIT vote for financial services in Jersey i) Jersey has a diversified financial services base Jersey is today well placed and well planned for a UK BREXIT vote. This is a result of long term strategic planning in respect of the economy and short term planning in respect of the EU Referendum. It is important to remember that Jersey is an International Finance Centre and facilitates the international flow of funds globally. Our diverse base of underlying business is therefore not necessarily directly affected by a BREXIT vote. In the financial services industry, work in recent years has demonstrated the diversified client base in financial services markets, it is in particular to note new markets in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. These are significant jurisdictions that support the financial services industry in Jersey. We are very well and uniquely placed to navigate our way through what is going to be a period of adjustment for the UK where there will be the need to build and develop new relationships. ii) Jersey was a third country to Europe, for financial services, and will remain a third country post BREXIT Institutional investors place confidence in Jersey structures to distribute capital around the world. Jersey, has always been a third country to Europe for the purposes of financial services and this will remain post the withdrawal of the UK from Europe. Jersey agreements as to market access for financial services have been built up over numerous years and those agreements will remain post-BREXIT. The UK will now have to look at alternative models to distribute capital around the world, through new agreements and relationships with other countries, which is, of course, a position that Jersey already has in respect of third country access. The fact that we already have third country access to Europe allows certainty to be provided through Jersey - that position is the same this morning s it was yesterday morning . Certainty is a very valuable commodity. The Government see a business as usual relationship with Europe in financial services due to the market access that Jersey has had for years. Art 41 The markets this morning has demonstrated the volatility that was predicted would come about as a result of a BREXIT vote. However, we have already seen the markets beginning to stabilise over the course of the morning and the announcement by Prime Minister that the withdrawal of the UK from the EU will have to come about under a new Prime Minister will provide a likely 3 month break in which stability may return to the UK market. Over time history tells us markets tend to rebalance. Art The Bank of England Governor has issued a statement this morning on stability of the UK economy and liquidity of UK banks. Jersey is a significant contributor to liquidity as explained in the Capital Economics Report on Jersey's value to the UK. 41 . Jersey's financial services industry has adapted to significant changed over recent years. After having been through the worst financial crisis since the second world war we have shown we are resilient. We are adaptable and we are in a good position as to change. We have returned to almost record numbers in employment and we have diversified and changed before. The Jersey authorities will work closely with the financial services industry to ensure Jersey is as well placed as it can be to retain a positive relationship with the City of London in the event of a BREXIT.

  • The Jersey Way”- Moving on Iselin Jones, BA(Hons), MA, LLB
    “The Jersey Way”- moving on Iselin Jones, BA(Hons), MA, LLB. Paralegal, Corbett Le Quesne. Phil Palmer LLB, MA. Associate Professor, Institute of Law Jersey Abstract The 2017 Jersey Independent Care Inquiry report identified decades of significant child protection failures within the care system in Jersey. It also highlighted the ‘Jersey Way’ which it described as ‘a failure to establish a culture of openness and transparency, leading to a perception at least, of collusion and cover up’. The report made numerous recommendations designed to improve child protection arrangements on the Island. This article discusses the extent to which the outcome of the public inquiry will deliver justice for the victims of abuse. We argue that Inquiries are influenced by political bias, often failing to deliver what Burton and Carlen term discourse closure. We suggest adopting McAlinden and Naylor’s hybrid approach to justice, involving a combination of procedural and restorative justice, to bring the victims a true sense of closure. Key Words: Public Inquiries. Child Abuse. Procedural and Restorative Justice. The ‘Jersey Way’. Introduction The Jersey Independent Care Inquiry Report (JICIR) was hoped to draw a line once and for all over one of Jersey’s darkest periods. The report was initiated by the launch of Operation Rectangle in September 2007, originally an investigation into allegations of historical sexual abuse within the Jersey Sea Cadets before it expanded to include the former children’s home Haut de la Garenne (HDLG). It was only a few weeks later that revelations began pouring out from the HDLG investigation site. The island was in the throes of a moral panic- to the point where a coconut shell was mistaken for a child’s skull.

In those days the Guide covered TV as well as radio, which could only manage to fill two pages – but then there were only 19 “ILR” stations.

  • Encountering Urbanization on Jersey: Development, Sustainability, and Spatiality in a Small Island Setting
    Encountering Urbanization on Jersey: Development, Sustainability, and Spatiality in a Small Island Setting Henry Johnson University of Otago, New Zealand [email protected] Abstract: On the island of Jersey, the success of local industries including agriculture, tourism, and financial services has helped grow the population of permanent residents, contract workers, seasonal workers, and short-term tourists. As a result, between 1950 and 2015 the island’s population nearly doubled from about 55,000 to 100,000, and, consequently, the landscape has undergone much urban development, not only in and around the parish capital of St Helier, but also in varying degrees in each of the island’s other parishes. During this period of population growth, the island’s urbanization has been framed within a context of developing the island’s industries on the one hand, yet sustaining the island’s unique environment on the other. After all, one of the main qualities of Jersey that has helped its tourism industry has been its ability to maintain characteristics of the island in a context of population growth and increased resource restraints. Using a method of critical inquiry of primary and secondary sources, this article foregrounds how the geographically small island of Jersey has encountered urbanization, particularly in the decades following the Second World War. The discussion illustrates some of the consequences for islanders and how development and sustainability as an assemblage of interconnected practices and perceptions have helped craft a distinct environment for the island that contributes to its local character. The article shows that inward migration flows have led to a locally-defined urbanization, which has resulted in a continually growing population and a type of urban island lure.
