About Constitutional Commission

The Constitutional Commission was established under section 118 of the Cayman Islands Constitution Order, 2009 ("the Constitution"). The Commission is an independent body, which is deems crucial for its effectiveness and legitimacy in exercising its functions. In broad terms, the Commission may be said to combine the functions of an advisory body with those of a think tank on constitutional matters. The specific functions of the Commission are outlined in section 118(3) of the Constitution as follows: - To advise the Government on questions concerning constitutional status and development in the Cayman Islands; - To publish reports, discussion papers, information papers and other documents on constitutional matters affecting the Cayman Islands; - To promote understanding and awareness of this Constitution and its values; and - To exercise such other functions as may be prescribed by a law enacted by the Legislature. The Commission must consist of a Chairperson and two other members, at least one of whom shall be an experienced lawyer, all of whom volunteer their time and services to the Commission. All members are appointed by the Governor, in consultation with the Premier and Leader of the Opposition.
