  • The Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey's
    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? I would, at the highest level, like to offer four main reasons: First, there is a profound and almost universally shared sense that what we have in Jersey is special.

Progress has been steady, with the majority of initiatives on track. Inevitably with such a large number of initiatives being implemented over a long period, and with challenging targets for delivery from the outset, progress may vary and it is to be expected that some projects will slip against deadlines for a variety of reasons. Analysis of the status of each initiative shows that of the 249 entries for June – · 207 (83%) were on track · 32 (13%) were slightly behind schedule · 10 (4%) were seriously off track As with previous updates, the report is ordered by Minister. Any questions that Members may have on individual initiatives should therefore be directed to the appropriate Minister.

Introduction In 2014 Jersey Archive became one of the earliest services and the first outside the UK to be awarded accredited status by The National Archive. The Accreditation Panel which made the award noted: ‘[The] Panel felt that this was overall a very strong application, which meets all requirements of the Accreditation Standard – one of only a few to do so in the scheme's history. They considered that the assessment demonstrated a very well run service, with a clear policy direction and an important role in the public accountability of the government of Jersey.’ The Panel also noted the importance of the role of Jersey Archive and Jersey Heritage in the local community: ‘The archive service itself and through Jersey Heritage has close links with the local community and good relationships with its stakeholders. It not only collects and preserves the history of the island but offers opportunities to participate in the work of the archive service. Such integration and good relationships contribute to the sustainability of the archive service.’ 2014 was also a year in which the archive team focused on records management and in assisting public institutions in their preparation for Freedom of Information legislation.
