Sanctioned APNU+AFC MPs suspended without pay, benefits

APNU+AFC Parliamentarians Christopher Jones, Ganesh Mahipaul, Sherod Duncan, Natasha Singh-Lewis, Annette Ferguson, Vinceroy Jordan, Tabitha Sarabo-Halley and Maureen Philadelphia have received their letters of suspension from the National Assembly informing them that they would not be receiving their salaries and other benefits during that period.

On Thursday last, the House voted to suspend Jones, Mahipaul, Duncan and Singh-Lewis for four consecutive sittings while Ferguson, Jordan, Sarabo-Halley and Philadelphia were suspended for six consecutive sittings. Their suspension came as a result of the failed bid on December 29, 2021, to obstruct the passage of the Natural Resource Fund bill.
