Jersey in the world

In recent years Jersey's international identity has developed, and following Brexit will need to evolve further as a new relationship with our European Union neighbours is established. A strong relationship with the United Kingdom based on mutual advantage and respect should be reinforced by a higher profile in the Commonwealth, autonomous trading relationships across the world, the strengtheming of links forged through targeted overseas aid, and other institutional advances.

In order to improve the passage of legislation, it should be agreed with the United Kingdom that Jersey laws of an uncontroversial nature should in future be capable of being assented to by the Lieutenant-Governor, rather than having to pass through the Privy Council in London.
