Community Provisions (Restrictive Measures - Syria) (Amendment No. 9) (Jersey) Order 2012

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While there is a presumption toward publication to support of transparency and accountability, detailed information may not be published if, for example, it would constitute a breach of data protection, or disclosure would prejudice commercial interest.

Explanatory Note

This Order gives effect in Jersey to Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 1117/2012 of 29th November 2012 (O.J. L330, 30.11.12, p.9). From 30th November 2012, that Regulation amended Annex II to Council Regulation (EU) No. 36/2012 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Syria. It updated the entries for 7 persons and entities in the list in that Annex of those whose funds and economic resources are frozen, and removed one person from that list.

The Community Provisions (Restrictive Measures – Syria) (Jersey) Order 2012 gives effect in Jersey to Council Regulation (EU) No. 36/2012. It defines “Council Regulation” as that Regulation as amended up to 16th October 2012. By the substitution of 30th November 2012 for that date, the changes to the Annex II list are brought within the scope of the Jersey Order.
