Employment and Discrimination Tribunal: Re-appointment of members

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While there is a presumption toward publication to support of transparency and accountability, detailed information may not be published if, for example, it would constitute a breach of data protection, or disclosure would prejudice commercial interest.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: Report to the States – Re-appointment of 8 members to the Employment and Discrimination Tribunal

Decision(s): The Minister decided to present to the States Assembly a report to advise that she has re-appointed 8 members of the Employment and Discrimination Tribunal.

Reason(s) for Decision: The initial five-year terms of office for eight of the current Tribunal members would expire on 8 December 2019 and each of those members has requested to extend their term of office as a member of the Tribunal.

 

Having consulted the Jersey Appointments Commission and confirmed that the contribution of each of the members of the Tribunal has been satisfactory, the Minister has re-appointed the following eight individuals as Lay Members, each for a further (and final) four-year term of office which will end on 8 December 2023;

 

 Mrs Elizabeth Adams

 Mrs Janet Brothertom

 Mrs Melanie Cavey

 Mr Thomas Gales

 Mr Mandlenkosi Mlambo

 Miss Tamburai Mouni

 Miss Daria Sawicka

            Mr Clive Holloway

 

It is not necessary to request that the States Assembly approves the re-appointments. As a matter of good order, this report notifies the Assembly.

Resource Implications: There are no financial or manpower implications.

 

Action required: Policy Principal to request the Greffier of the States to arrange for the report to be presented to the States Assembly at the earliest opportunity.
