    Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man have released proposals to gradually open up the registers of who ultimately owns companies in the island, meaning the EU, businesses and eventually the general public will have some level of access over the next four years.

    Quote Message: It took the allied powers six months to plan and successfully carry out the D-Day landings. It took Thomas Edison two years to create the light bulb. The Crown Dependencies have today set out a three-year plan to table a discussion in parliament with no commitments and no details on whether they will comply with emerging international standards on beneficial ownership transparency. from John Christensen Tax Justice Network

    Current Seneschal Jeremy La Trobe Bateman has to retire at the age of 65, although under Sark Law he can reapply for a further five-year term.

    Applications must be in by Monday 1 July.
