    Disclosure of information relating to GUIDE Jersey entities Last reviewed: February 2021 The Financial Services (Disclosure and Provision of Information) (Jersey) Law 2020 and some ancillary legislation amending the law and filling in certain details (the Registry Law), came into force on 6 January 2021. Purpose and overview of the Registry Law The Registry Law provides a new legal framework for requiring entities to disclose certain information to the Jersey Financial Services Commission (the JFSC), in line with the international anti-money laundering standard set by Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendation 24. In many respects, the Registry Law is a restatement of pre-existing obligations but there are some new concepts and new obligations, which can be summarised as: What's new? What's not changed? Nominated persons must be appointed by every Beneficial owners continue to be those individuals entity who are beneficial owners and controllers of an entity Significant person information must be disclosed to the JFSC and some of it is publically available Beneficial owner information for companies must be disclosed to and kept private by the JFSC Beneficial owner information for foundations and some funds must be disclosed to and kept private by Criminal offence for failure to comply with disclosure the JFSC obligations Nominee shareholders and their nominators must be Annual Confirmation Statements are new disclosed to the JFSC terminology but largely replicate Annual Returns, to be filed annually by end of February (extended to 30 JFSC has the power to strike off entities for failure to June for 2021) comply with disclosure obligations JFSC can issue a Code of Practice applicable to all entities Registry Law applies to entities The Registry Law imposes obligations on entities.

  • Violence and the Sacred in Northern Ireland
    VIOLENCE AND THE SACRED IN NORTHERN IRELAND Duncan Morrow University of Ulster at Jordanstown For 25 years Northern Ireland has been a society characterized not so much by violence as by an endemic fear of violence. At a purely statistical level the risk of death as a result of political violence in Belfast was always between three and ten times less than the risk of murder in major cities of the United States. Likewise, the risk of death as the result of traffic accidents in Northern Ireland has been, on average, twice as high as the risk of death by political killing (Belfast Telegraph, 23 January 1994). Nevertheless, the tidal flow of fear about political violence, sometimes higher and sometimes lower but always present, has been the consistent fundamental backdrop to public, and often private, life. This preeminence of fear is triggered by past and present circumstances and is projected onto the vision of the future. The experience that disorder is ever close at hand has resulted in an endemic insecurity which gives rise to the increasingly conscious desire for a new order, for scapegoats and for resolution. For a considerable period of time, Northern Ireland has actively sought and made scapegoats but such actions have been ineffective in bringing about the desired resolution to the crisis. They have led instead to a continuous mimetic crisis of both temporal and spatial dimensions. To have lived in Northern Ireland is to have lived in that unresolved crisis. Liberal democracy has provided the universal transcendence of Northern Ireland's political models. Northern Ireland is physically and spiritually close to the heartland of liberal democracy: it is geographically bound by Britain and Ireland, economically linked to Western Europe, and historically tied to emigration to the United States, Canada, and the South Pacific.

  • EU Settlement Scheme Extended to the People of Northern Ireland: What Does It Mean for Me?
    EU Settlement Scheme extended to the people of Northern Ireland: what does it mean for me? June 2020 Introduction This briefing sets out a change in immigration rules being introduced from 24 August 2020. The change is a response to representations made by a number of organisations and individuals on how the current arrangements do not meet the identity and birth right provisions of the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. The issue was the subject of a legal challenge by Jake and Emma De Souza that has now been resolved. The new rules only apply for a limited period. The joint committee of the Commission and Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission published a report setting out a longer-term solution produced by Alison Harvey. Alison has also produced this briefing. I want to thank Alison for so ably meeting the challenge of producing an accessible document while doing justice to the complexities of the amended immigration rules. The briefing also sets out where else to get help and I hope it will be helpful to those individuals looking to resolve family reunification arrangements who are covered by the rules. Les Allamby Chief Commissioner Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission 2 What has happened? On 14 May 2002 the government published Statement of Changes CP 232 to the Immigration Rules. This changes the rules with effect from 24 August 2020 so that from that date the “family members” of the “people of Northern Ireland” can apply under the EU settlement scheme set out in Appendix EU to the Rules. The EU settlement scheme was originally devised for EEA nationals and their family members living in the UK before the end of transition period following Brexit to be able to continue living in UK indefinitely when the transition period ends, and in some instances for others family members to join them.

  • The Hague Convention – Order Or Chaos?
    THE HAGUE CONVENTION – ORDER OR CHAOS? An update on a paper first delivered to a Family Law Conference in Adelaide in 1994 Updated for the Canadian National Judicial Institute International Judicial Conference on The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction July 2004 La Malbaie (Québec) (Canada) Sub nom "The Special Commission recognises that the Convention in general continues to work well in the interests of children and broadly meets the needs for which it was drafted." Are they kidding themselves? By the Honourable Justice Kay A Judge of the Appeal Division Family Court of Australia Melbourne1 1 A significant debt of gratitude is owed to my research associates Alice Carter, Tracy Smith, Kristen Abery, Genevieve Hall, Rob O’Neill, Waleed Aly and Mai Lin Yong for their invaluable assistance in the preparation of this paper over its many years of development. "Unless Australian courts, including this Court, uphold the spirit and the letter of the Convention as it is rendered part of Australian law by the Regulations, a large international enterprise of great importance for the welfare of children generally will be frustrated in the case of this country. Because Australia, more than most other countries, is a land with many immigrants, derived from virtually every country on earth, well served by international air transport, it is a major user of the Convention scheme. Many mothers, fathers and children are dependent upon the effective implementation of the Convention for protection when children are the victims of international child abduction and retention. To the extent that Australian courts, including this Court, do not fulfil the expectations expressed in the rigorous language of the Convention and the Regulations, but effectively reserve custody (and residence) decisions to themselves, we should not be surprised if other countries, noting what we do, decline to extend to our courts the kind of reciprocity and mutual respect which the Convention scheme puts in place.

  • England & Northern Ireland
    England & Northern Ireland (UK) Key issues • England and Northern Ireland have been more effective in activating their highly skilled adults than many other countries participating in the survey. • There is a strong and positive association between higher literacy proficiency and social outcomes in England and Northern Ireland. • The talent pool of highly skilled adults in England and Northern Ireland is likely to shrink relative to that of other countries. • England and Northern Ireland need to address social inequalities, particularly among young adults. • There are particularly large proportions of adults in England and Northern Ireland with poor numeracy skills. The survey The Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) provides a picture of adults’ proficiency in three key information-processing skills: • literacy – the ability to understand and respond appropriately to written texts; • numeracy – the ability to use numerical and mathematical concepts; and • problem solving in technology-rich environments – the capacity to access, interpret and analyse information found, transformed and communicated in digital environments. Proficiency is described in terms of a scale of 500 points divided into levels. Each level summarises what a person with a particular score can do. Six proficiency levels are defined for literacy and numeracy (Levels 1 through 5 plus below Level 1) and four for problem solving in technology-rich environments (Levels 1 through 3 plus below Level 1). The survey also provides a rich array of information regarding respondents’ use of skills at work and in everyday life, their education, their linguistic and social backgrounds, their participation in the labour market and other aspects of their well-being.

  • Estimates of Trade Between Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England
    UK Interregional Trade Estimation: Estimates of trade between Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England Alastair Greig, Mairi Spowage and Graeme Roy ESCoE Discussion Paper 2020-09 June 2020 ISSN 2515-4664 UK Interregional Trade Estimation: Estimates of trade between Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England Alastair Greig, Mairi Spowage and Graeme Roy ESCoE Discussion Paper No. 2020-09 June 2020 Abstract In the UK, there is major economic change such as Brexit on the horizon. The impact of such change is likely to vary across UK regions. There is also a growing demand for improved regional economic analysis to help inform devolution and City Deal-type policymaking. Despite these concerns, there are no comprehensive national statistics on interregional trade in the UK. This paper fills this gap, proposing a framework for estimating interregional trade between the devolved nations of the UK: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. We explain where gaps exist in the current UK data landscape and suggests various ways in which these could be addressed. We then apply our framework using currently available data, presenting initial results for trade between the 4 nations of the UK in 2015. Recommendations for future work are also presented, including the need to evaluate current methods for collecting trade information within the UK.

  • NORTHERN IRELAND and the SECOND WORLD WAR Dr Senia Paseta
    NORTHERN IRELAND AND THE SECOND WORLD WAR Dr Senia Paseta. St Hugh’s College, Oxford On the day after Britain announced it was at war with Germany, Lord Craigavon, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, declared that ‘the whole of the resources’ of the province would be placed at the disposal of the imperial parliament. The loyalty of the Stormont administration was hardly in question during the period 1939-1945, but its ability to effectively organise and deploy resources, manpower and military support came under increasing scrutiny and exacerbated existing tensions within the province. Northern Ireland’s war began slowly. A number of British commentators noted that the province differed markedly from the rest of the country in its cavalier attitude to the crisis, and many contemporary reports suggest that life went on largely as normal. A Blackout order came into force in September 1939 and preparation for rationing food, petrol and other items followed soon after, but a lack of urgency characterised the government’s initial approach to placing the province on war- footing. Industry and agriculture were particularly slow to adjust: the rate of unemployment actually grew over 1940 as the economic opportunities offered by the war were slow to arrive. No new factory had been built by the end of 1940, and the munitions industries had the worst record of production in the United Kingdom during the early months of the war. It proved initially difficult to incorporate Northern Ireland’s economy into the United Kingdom’s, and perceptions of the region as remote, under-skilled and expensive further hindered such integration.
