HISTORY | SUSPENDED FOR SHOUTING AT THE CHAIR : Sookdeo Bissoondoyal said he would answer Governor Mackenzie-Kennedy by a public meeting

15 Déc 2020 16h23 605 ANAND MOHEEPUTH Never ever had the Legislative Council in Mauritius witnessed such a verbal clash between a parliamentarian and a Governor as the one which occurred on 23 November 1948. The motion of the fourth member for Port Louis, Samuel Benjamin Emile, requiring the Council’s approval for an inquiry to be held in a case of bribery and shady “dealings” involving the Head of the Supplies Control Department, Mr T.Williams, triggered the sparks. Before the motion was moved for adoption, the first member for Grand Port-Savanne, Sookdeo Bissoondoyal, stood up to move for a postponement of Emile’s motion when the Governor, Sir Donald Mackenzie-Kennedy who was the Chairperson stopped him and told Emile that it was in order for him to proceed with his motion.
