Draft Proceeds of Crime (Amendment) (Jersey) Law 200- (MD-TR-2007-0099)
In 2008 the Island’s framework to counter money laundering and terrorist financing is to be the subject of a review by the International Monetary Fund. Jersey will be assessed against the international standards set by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (“FATF”). The amendments to this draft Law have been formulated to achieve a number of the criteria set out in the 40 Recommendations and 9 Special Recommendations of the FATF, against which Jersey will be assessed and also to address inconsistencies in the current operation of the Proceeds of Crime (Jersey) Law, 1999, (“POCL”) the Drug Trafficking Offences (Jersey) Law, 1988 (“DTOL”) and the Terrorism (Jersey) Law, 2002 (“TL”).
