Will the Senator’s salary be suspended?
Share this:
From Peter Howard.
SENATOR Stuart Syvret is reported in your newspaper as asserting that he will fight any attempts to bring him back from London.
Senator Syvret was elected to the States Assembly by no fewer than 15,131 Jersey voters. He – like all other elected representatives in the Assembly – receives a salary from the public purse of at least £40,000 a year.
As the Senator will not be available to take part in the deliberations of the Assembly for the foreseeable future to whom should his 15,131 electors turn for representation?
Moreover, will his salary be suspended until he takes up his parliamentary duties once more?
