PUBLIC DEBATE ON REFORM OPTIONS  -COMMUNICARE. 12 April 2013

A meeting has been organised for residents of St Brelade and St Peter to hear from the 3 campaign groups and for the public to have their say on electoral reform ahead of the referendum on 24th April.

The meeting is being organised by St Brelade Deputy Montfort Tadier. He is part of The A Team, the group campaigning for Option A , however, he says that the meeting will be an opportunity for the public to hear speakers from all 3 of the groups.

‘Representatives from A, B and C have been invited and have indicated they will field speakers. It is vitally important that people are engaged in what is Jersey’s first real referendum on a significant constitutional matter.’ Said Deputy Tadier

‘I believe all three groups are keen to see as many people turn out to vote as possible, and public debates such as these can only be a good thing.’

‘I am very excited about the possibility for change for the better. We have a once in a life time opportunity to get this right and I hope the public will also be motivated by this thought.’ The meeting will take place at Communicare at 7pm on Friday 12th April.
