L'înformâtion et les sèrvices publyis pouor I'Île dé Jèrri

Licensing (Prescribed Renewal Form) (Jersey) Order 2020

A formal published “Ministerial Decision” is required as a record of the decision of a Minister (or an Assistant Minister where they have delegated authority) as they exercise their responsibilities and powers.

Ministers are elected by the States Assembly and have legal responsibilities and powers as “corporation sole” under the States of Jersey Law 2005 by virtue of their office and in their areas of responsibility, including entering into agreements, and under any legislation conferring on them powers.

An accurate record of “Ministerial Decisions” is vital to effective governance, including:

  • demonstrating that good governance, and clear lines of accountability and authority, are in place around decisions-making – including the reasons and basis on which a decision is made, and the action required to implement a decision

  • providing a record of decisions and actions that will be available for examination by States Members, and Panels and Committees of the States Assembly; the public, organisations, and the media; and as a historical record and point of reference for the conduct of public affairs

Ministers are individually accountable to the States Assembly, including for the actions of the departments and agencies which discharge their responsibilities.

The Freedom of Information Law (Jersey) Law 2011 is used as a guide when determining what information is be published. While there is a presumption toward publication to support of transparency and accountability, detailed information may not be published if, for example, it would constitute a breach of data protection, or disclosure would prejudice commercial interest.

Subject:

Licensing (Prescribed Renewal Form) (Jersey) Order 2020.

Decision(s):

The Minister made the Licensing (Prescribed Renewal Form) (Jersey) Order 2020. (“the Order”)  

Reason(s) for Decision:

The Licensing (Prescribed Renewal Form) (Jersey) Order 2020 prescribes a form for use on a website and an alternative in paper and electronic form for applications to renew a licence under the Licensing (Jersey) Law 1974.

 

The Order also repeals the Licensing (Prescribed Forms) (Jersey) Order 1974, which is replaced in part by this Order. The remainder of the Licensing (Prescribed Forms) (Jersey) Order 1974 is no longer required, as the form of application under Article 3 of the Licensing (Jersey) Law 1974 is now set by the Licensing Assembly, rather than prescribed by the Minister.

Resource Implications:

There are no negative financial or manpower costs for the States.  

Action required:

Notify Legislative Drafting that the Order has been made; forward the signed and sealed Order to the Legislative Drafting Office Editorial Team, and request the Greffier of the States to arrange for the making of the Order to be notified to the States.
