    The Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey’s National and International Identity Interim Findings Report 1 Foreword Avant-propos What makes Jersey special and why does that matter? Those simple questions, each leading on to a vast web of intriguing, inspiring and challenging answers, underpin the creation of this report on Jersey’s identity and how it should be understood in today’s world, both in the Island and internationally. The Island Identity Policy Development Board is proposing for consideration a comprehensive programme of ways in which the Island’s distinctive qualities can be recognised afresh, protected and celebrated. It is the board’s belief that success in this aim must start with a much wider, more confident understanding that Jersey’s unique mixture of cultural and constitutional characteristics qualifies it as an Island nation in its own right. An enhanced sense of national identity will have many social and cultural benefits and reinforce Jersey’s remarkable community spirit, while a simultaneously enhanced international identity will protect its economic interests and lead to new opportunities. What does it mean to be Jersey in the 21st century? The complexity involved in providing any kind of answer to this question tells of an Island full of intricacy, nuance and multiplicity. Jersey is bursting with stories to tell. But none of these stories alone can tell us what it means to be Jersey. In light of all this complexity why take the time, at this moment, to investigate the different threads of what it means to be Jersey?

  • Questions to Minister Without Notice Chief Minister
    5. Questions to Ministers without notice - The Chief Minister The Greffier of the States (in the Chair): Very well. That concludes the question period to the Minister and we now come to the second question period. I invite questions to the Chief Minister. 5.1 Deputy T.M. Pitman: I am keen today. The Privileges and Procedures Committee Subgroup under, let me say, the towering, colossal intellect of the Deputy of St. Peter, has concluded that Ministerial government is not working. Now, I know first-hand that Scrutiny is not working because it has no teeth. The Executive is not working because it has no heart - some might suggest brains. But rather than just implement another costly and procrastinating review, will the Chief Minister consider putting the issue to the public in a referendum, i.e. Committee or Ministerial; efficiency versus elitist unaccountability? Senator T.A. Le Sueur (The Chief Minister): Referendums need to have simple questions. [Laughter] Deputy, I would suggest a simple question there. But more seriously, I think anyone recognising the magnitude of the change from the previous system of government to the new Ministerial system will accept the fact that there were likely to be imperfections, teething problems, and issues that needed resolving. That has proved to be the case for this system and I have no doubt that the present arrangements can be improved upon. I would like to work constructively with P.P.C. (Privileges and Procedures Committee) to see how that can be done. The report suggested there may need to be a review of some sort carried out.
