Africa-Press – Mauritius. The leader of the’ opposition, Joe Lesjongard, will not propose Private Notice Question (PNQ) this morning with the return of the slice of Time Question to the’ National Assembly. C’is at least what’a learned Le-Mauricien circles close to the parliamentary minority leader early this morning. The president of the Socialist Militant Movement (MSM), former minister of’Energy and Public Utilities, would have made this choice, in line with the decision of his party, to grant a time of grace to the new government of the’Alliance of Change, to settle at the controls of the affairs of the’State.
Thus, the decision was made not to rush the governmental’agenda, Prime Minister Navin Ramgoolam, having suggested that’il will shortly make a statement on the state of play of the economic situation and will subsequently communicate the decision of the government regarding the fall in prices of’essence and diesel as well as on the payment of the 14th month bonus.
The leader of the’ opposition, it is understood in informed circles, would have expressed his wish to be able to take a position as soon as the new government begins to endorse major decisions, also taking into account that most new ministers need a’ time of’adaptation in their respective positions. L’entourage of Joe Lesjongard also points out that the’ installation in power of the’Alliance of Change also represents the establishment of a new work plan for the country and not continuity in governmental’action.
In addition, government parliamentarians participated yesterday in their first meeting of the parliamentary majority committee in the Treasury Building under the chairmanship of Navin Ramgoolam. The new members of the’ National Assembly took note of how the work will now proceed with a strong membership as Backbenchers, sir who will give voice with additional interpellations.
