Deputy Prime Minister

Constitutional case of ex- Vanuatu MPs continues

While he was still the deputy prime minister, Moana Carcasses and the other applicants who were ministers and members of parliament allegedly showed up at the Magistrate court premises on June 12 last year for the bribery case.

The applicants claim in their constitutional application that during that time parliament was in session and they are under parliamentary immunity as enshrined in Article 27 (2) of the Constitution.
