CONSIDÉRANT que
dans l’Article 5 du Règlement prohibant
l’enlèvement de sable, gravier, etc., passé par les
États le 21 janvier 1884, le tiers des amendes est accordé
à l’informateur ; Que, par certaine lettre des Seigneurs du
Conseil Privé de Sa Majesté, adressée à Monsieur le
Bailli et présentée à cette Assemblée le 17
novembre 1882, la Trésorerie réclame l’entier des amendes
infligées en vertu des Règlements triennaux passés par les
États.
Considérant de
plus qu’il est utile en certains cas de donner quelque récompense
à l’informateur, autrement il serait difficile d’atteindre
les contrevenants à ce Règlement ou à tout autre de cette
nature.
Les États,
à l’unanimité, ont décidé de prier Sa
Très Excellente Majesté en Conseil de les autoriser à
accorder aux informateurs, lorsqu’ils le jugeront à propos, partie
des amendes infligées en vertu des Règlements triennaux qui
pourront de temps à autre être passés par les États.
“The Lords of the Committee in obedience to Your
Majesty’s said Order of reference, have this day taken the said Act into
consideration together with a letter from the Lords Commissioners of the
Treasury dated the 19th June 1884, to whom the Lords of the Committee had
referred the Act for their opinion.
The Lords of the Committee have also had under their consideration
the letter to the Lord President of the Council from the President of the
States of Jersey, dated the 5th day of June 1883, with reference to the Act of
the States of Jersey of the 8th February 1883, entitled “Law on
Publicans”, in which letter it is stated :
“Lastly, I have the honour to
inform their Lordships with reference to their intimation regarding the
appropriation of fines, that the States by an Act adopting the Report of their
Committee on Fines and passed on the 15th February last have acknowledged that
all the Fines levied under Provisional Acts “do belong in principle and
by right to the Crown,” and that in adopting the said Report, they
further resolved that in future all such fines shall be appropriated
exclusively to the benefit of the Crown”.
The Lords Commissioners of the Treasury having reported that they
do not think it right that any such general authority as that asked for by the
States in their Act of the 21st May 1884, should be given, and that they are of
opinion that all triennial Ordinances which propose to appropriate the fines
forming part of the Hereditary Revenues of the Crown should be submitted to that
Board with a statement of the grounds on which such appropriation is desired,
with a view to the Lords Commissioners considering each case on its merits. The
Lords of the Committee do agree humbly to report, as their opinion, to Your
Majesty, that it is not advisable for Your Majesty to grant the authority
desired by the States of Jersey : but that the States, whenever they are of
opinion that it is necessary that a portion of the fines inflicted by virtue of
triennial Ordinances should go to the informers, should submit a statement of
the grounds on which such appropriation is desired in order that the Lords
Commissioners of the Treasury may consider each case on its merits.
HER MAJESTY, having
taken the said Report into consideration, was pleased, by and with the advice
of Her Privy Council, to approve thereof, and to order as it is hereby ordered,
that this Order be entered upon the Register of the Island of Jersey
and observed accordingly. Whereof the Lieutenant Governor or
Commander-in-Chief, the Bailiff and Jurats, and all other Her Majesty’s
Officers, for the time being, in the said Island,
and all other persons whom it may concern, are to take notice and govern
themselves accordingly.”
