Jersey To Vote On Red Ensign
Ships registered in Jersey are British ships. As such there is an automatic entitlement to fly the Red Ensign and this is recognized in both UK and Jersey legislation. That right to fly the Red Ensign also applies under UK law to ships registered in other Crown Dependencies and the Overseas Territories. However, as part of establishing a separate international identity, most of these jurisdictions have also authorized the flying of an ensign that has a recognizable crest or badge associated with that jurisdiction’s history and character. These are known as defaced or special ensigns.
Jersey has over 2,000 pleasure craft on its Shipping Register. Many are based away from the island. They can be found throughout the world and include 28 vessels which are over 24 metres in length. It also has a fleet (currently numbering 63) of small commercial ships such as workboats and charter yachts., with very little electricity fluorescent bulbs consumption, and minimum background light to disturb sleep. Such a system would also be suitable for children's rooms. A dusk to dawn photocell could be incorporated as well., when your front bumper lip is out of shape in a car accident, you are probably able to replace it with a brand plastic beer mugs new one. It is not a piece of hard work.
Some years ago, the Jersey government was approached by shipowners requesting the use of a specifically Jersey ensign. Research carried out by Fisher Associates in 2007–8 on the possible expansion of the Shipping Register included an assessment of whether this would be valued. A Ministerial Decision was then taken in 2008 to prepare the legal and constitutional ground. These matters are now settled and the government has said it considers it to be a good time to give the Jersey fleet the option of a clearer sense of identity with the island.
“The immediate advantage of flying a Red Ensign, plain or defaced, is that the ship is internationally recognised as British. Associated with that is a sense of security and recognition that the flag is a flag of quality. Legislative, inspection and compliance standards particularly regarding safety, protection against pollution, employment and security are known to be high. A plain red ensign with no special design added does nothing to help a small jurisdiction’s expression of identity as separate from the UK. On the other hand, a special ensign promotes greater international awareness for the jurisdiction and indirectly is likely to be good for business,” the proposition, lodged by Jersey’s Minister for Economic Development, Alan Maclean, states.
“Where a ship registry develops a reputation for particular expertise, safety standards or efficiency, then a special ensign provides a way of attracting more ship-owners to that registry. Yacht-owners are frequently people who also seek a reputable jurisdiction for fund and asset management.. It is very impossible for one to get to know every piece of them quite clearly. Every item is petmate crates specially designed for a particular purpose. In Jersey’s case, the island’s reputation for such matters provides an obvious link between the two. Furthermore, it has been pointed out that at present Jersey yacht-owners can fly a distinguishing ensign only if they are members of a Yacht Club which has its own, such as is available with the Royal Channel Islands Yacht Club and the St. Helier Yacht Club.sky lanterns comes in a variety of color choices, for both indoor and outdoor uses. The key is that your new LED technology uses much lower power to produce much brighter light. Plus, the color of the light actually affects its brightness. Even then, and rather confusingly, the yacht itself could be registered elsewhere than Jersey.LED underwater fishing lights on boats are not only a novelty and only good for entertaining on boats at night. Of course they led light really look cool and add to the party atmosphere, This proposal would grant a privilege to all registered Jersey vessels without distinction,” it continues.
