You are here 1Up Info Mauritius History People ... News Search 1Up Info Mauritius Mauritius GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS Structure of Government The 1968 constitution proclaims that Mauritius is a "democratic state" and that the constitution is the supreme law of the land. It guarantees the fundamental rights and freedoms of the people, including the right to hold private property and to be free from racial or other discrimination. Fundamental rights can only be suspended during wars or states of emergency, which must be duly declared by the parliament and reviewed every six months. The political structure is patterned to a large extent on the British system. As in Britain, the political party that can gain support from a majority in parliament chooses the prime minister, who, along with the cabinet, wields political power. The constitution also provides for three important commissionsthe Judicial and Legal Service Commission, the Public Services Commission, and the Police Service Commissionas well as an ombudsman. The commissions oversee the appointment of government officials; the ombudsman investigates official misconduct. The country's legal system is based on the Napoleonic Code and English common law. The Supreme Court heads the judicial system and has the power to interpret the constitution and to judge the constitutionality of legislation brought to its attention. Appointed by the prime minister and president, the chief justice helps select five other judges on the court. The Supreme Court also serves as the Court of Criminal Appeal and the Court of Civil Appeal. Mauritius continues to refer legal and constitutional matters of undeterminable jurisdiction to Britain's Privy Council. Lower courts having original jurisdiction over various kinds of cases include the Intermediate Court, the Industrial Court, and ten district courts.

The motto on the scroll reads ’STELLA CLAVISQUE MARIS INDICI’ (’Star and key of the Indian sea’). Vincent Morley , 03 Mar 1997 Naval Ensign by Jan Oskar Engene , 19 Aug 1996 Mauritius has an unusual naval ensign of several unequal red, white and blue stripes. In the middle white panel is set a red anchor with a green cable and a five-pointed white star outlined in yellow on top. The anchor has two bars on the lower right side. If you cover the extensions on the bottom of the anchor, a key will appear. This is a reference to the motto found on Mauritius’ coat of arms: ’Stella Clavisque Maris Indici’ or ’The star and the key of the Indian Ocean’. Both the key and the star are also found in the coat of arms. Mauritius introduced the naval ensign in April 1974. It has the unusual proportions of 26:57. Source: ’New Flags’

Volume 17 - Issue 20, Sep. 30 - Oct. 13, 2000 India's National Magazine from the publishers of THE HINDU Table of Contents WORLD AFFAIRS A new government in Mauritius The Opposition alliance of the Mouvement of Socialiste Mauricien and the Mouvement Militant Mauricien registers a landslide victory in the elections in Mauritius. JOHN CHERIAN THE change of government in Mauritius seems to have gone somewhat unnoticed in the rest of the world. The end of the Cold War and the end of ideology in Mauritian politics are factors responsible for the fading international interest in the Island countr y. In the 1970s, when Paul Berenger arrived with his Mouvement Militant Mauricien (MMM) and a radical brand of politics, he was viewed with suspicion in the West. He was a Leftist, who demanded, among other things, the return of Diego Garcia to Mauritius . Dirty tricks were used to keep him out of power. Those were after all the Cold War days, and Mauritius occupied a strategic space in the Indian Ocean Rim area. Today Berenger is the most powerful politician on the island, after having emerged as the pi votal figure in the elections held in the second week of September. ANDREW ENGLAND/ AP Sir Anerood Jugnauth and Paul Berenger (right) in Port Louis on September 9.
