Hon. Michael Finnegan issues public apology

By on August 13, 2013

Twenty four hours after he said he saw no reason for an apology, the Honorable the member for Mesopotamia division and Minister of Housing Mr. Michael Finnegan has made an about turn. 

In a statement issued on Tuesday morning, Mr. Finnegan said that “having taken advice from my Party Leader who felt that I had gone a little too far in my remarks made in the House of Representatives on Wednesday 7th August 2013” he was in agreement that “I went too far in the heat of the debate.”

The Mesopotamia representative’s statement went on to say: “I wish therefore to publicly apologize to the citizenry of Belize, to the Honorable Speaker of the House of Representatives and to my colleague members on both sides of the aisle and further, to request that the Honorable Member for Belize Rural Central apologize for the public castigation she gave to the Sergeant at Arms on a matter which could have been addressed privately with the Honorable Speaker.”
