Eight APNU+AFC MPs were yesterday sent to the Privileges Committee of Parliament over the chaos that gripped Parliament on December 29 but a similar motion from the opposition was deferred over what was declared to be a procedural error leaving its Chief Whip accusing the Speaker of partial conduct
Hours after the Opposition submitted a motion to have over 20 government Members of Parliament (MPs) sent before the Committee of Privileges, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance Gail Teixeira yesterday counteracted with a similar motion resulting in eight Opposition MPs being sent for a disciplinary hearing.
However, the Opposition’s motion was not addressed as Speaker Manzoor Nadir ruled that it was incorrectly submitted.
