By-election for Jersey senator post

A by-election has been called for a new senator in Jersey's government following the removal of Stuart Syvret from the post.
The States Assembly, the island's decision-making body, is made up of 12 senators who sit for a six-year term.
Mr Syvret was automatically removed from his position this week as he was absent from the island for six months.
The States has announced the by-election will be held on 16 June with the new senator sworn in on 18 June.
