Request

I wish to know which States' Members voted in favour of Assisted Dying, and who voted against please.

Response

The information is exempt from disclosure as it is already in the public domain.  Article 23 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies.

The results of all votes taken in the States Assembly are made available via a dedicated page on the Assembly's website. 

Votes (gov.je)

Article applied

Article 23 - Information accessible to applicant by other means

(1) Information is absolutely exempt information if it is reasonably available to the applicant, otherwise than under this Law, whether or not free of charge.

(2) A scheduled public authority that refuses an application for information on this ground must make reasonable efforts to inform the applicant where the applicant may obtain the information.

This response has been issued on behalf of the States Greffe. The States Greffe is responsible for the information held by (and on behalf of) both itself and the States Assembly.  Neither the States Assembly nor the States Greffe form part of the Government of Jersey and the Government was not involved either in the examination and retrieval of any information required for this response, nor in the drafting of the response itself.
