No groups of children are affected by this proposition. |
3) What is the likely impact of the proposed decision on children and on their rights? • Identify any potential positive OR negative impacts and include indirect impacts on children and their rights as described in the UNCRC • Will different groups of children be affected differently by this decision? |
We do not anticipate the amendments to negatively impact on children in Jersey or their rights. |
4) Is a full Children's Rights Impact Assessment required? If you have identified impacts on children and their rights, a full CRIA should be completed. If no impacts are identified then a Full CRIA is not required, but please explain your rationale and how you reached this conclusion |
A full CRIA is not considered necessary for this amendment. This is because we have identified no specific impact within the provisions of the amendments on the rights of children. A full CRIA has already been published for the proposed amendments to the Dogs (Jersey) Law 1961 (P.63/2025) |
