  • Developing Cross-Bailiwick Restructuring Laws: the Guernsey
    Developing cross-bailiwick restructuring laws: The Guernsey and Jersey Royal Courts sanction cross-border pooling of assets and liabilities of insolvent companies Publication - 01/04/2020 Overview In decisions delivered on 24 August 2015 and 7 October the Royal Courts of Guernsey Court and Jersey respectively held that where the affairs of two insolvent companies (incorporated in Jersey and Guernsey respectively) are so intermingled that the expense of unravelling them would adversely affect distributions to creditors, it can be appropriate to treat the companies as a single entity. Having concluded that there was no bar in the legislative framework of Guernsey which would prevent such an application and with the interests of creditors firmly to the fore, the Deputy Bailiff of Guernsey granted a proposal by the Joint Liquidators (from Grant Thornton) to consolidate the assets and liabilities of a Guernsey company with the assets and liabilities of a related, but separate company incorporated in Jersey subject to the sanction of the Jersey Court. The Jersey Court subsequently reached a similar conclusion in terms of its jurisdiction to grant a pooling order. This is the first time the Guernsey Court has considered and granted such an order, which has allowed a procedure which, on its face, would appear to contradict basic principles i.e. separate legal personality and that creditors can only share in the assets of the company against which they are entitled to lodge a claim. Acknowledging the inevitable rise of cross-jurisdictional corporate insolvencies, the Guernsey Court confirmed the basic purpose of a liquidation was the realisation of a company’s assets for the benefit of its creditors and held that where there was a solution whereby creditors would receive more than they otherwise would, then common sense dictated that such a solution should find favour with the Court.

  • GS Misc 1241 GENERAL SYNOD
    GS Misc 1241 GENERAL SYNOD THE REPORT OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY’S COMMISSION ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE CHANNEL ISLANDS TO THE WIDER CHURCH OF ENGLAND Summary A draft Measure is before this Synod enabling the attachment of the Channel Islands Deaneries to the Diocese of Salisbury. This is the principal recommendation of an Archbishop’s Commission which reported last October. If agreed, this would enable Order(s) in Council to end the attachment of the Islands to Winchester, and the ad hoc arrangements that have been made for their oversight since 2013. This way forward is supported by the Island Deaneries and the Diocese of Salisbury. Summary of the Commission’s Report The Archbishop’s Commission on the relationship of the Channel Islands to the wider Church of England was set up in June 2018 following the breakdown between the Islands and the Bishop of Winchester (the Rt Revd Tim Dakin) over the suspension of the then Dean of Jersey (the Very Revd Bob Key) in March 2013 in relation to the handling of a safeguarding matter. The former Bishop of London, Lord Chartres, chaired the Commission assisted by two members (Sir Christopher Clarke & Lady Wilcox) and two consultants (Sir de Vic Carey from Guernsey and Mark Temple QC from Jersey). Since 2014 Bishop Trevor Willmott has by agreement being providing episcopal oversight for the Islands (with Islands parishes paying parish share to Canterbury in return for the provision of some common services), but it was recognised that this was not a permanent arrangement. Paragraphs 3-14 cover the historical background.
