  • Council of Ministers

    About
    The Council of Ministers is made up of the Chief Minister and 10 other ministers who are all appointed individually by the States.

    The responsibilities of the council are set out in law and include the following:

    co-ordinating policies and administration
    discussing and agreeing policy affecting two or more ministers
    prioritising executive and legislative proposals
    One of the first tasks of the council is to draw up a Strategic Plan for Jersey within four months of its appointment. The plan outlines the council’s aims and objectives and gives a timetable for implementation. Once the Strategic Plan is approved by the States Assembly, it is the role of the council to make sure it is properly and efficiently delivered.
