Candidates who were successful in the 2026 election have been asked to appear this morning at Jersey's Royal Court

Jersey's newly-elected States members are due to be officially sworn into their roles.

Candidates who were successful in Sunday's election have been told to appear at the Royal Court for 09:30 BST, where they will each be asked to take an oath of office.

Former politicians who failed to be re-elected in this year's poll will at that point cease to be elected members of the States Assembly.

After being sworn in, the members will attend their first States sitting on 19 June, when Lyndon Farnham is due to be selected as chief minister-designate.
