MINISTRY OF YOUTH & SPORTS – ADVISERS
(No. 1B/389) Mr E. Guimbeau (First Member for Curepipe & Midlands) asked the
Minister of Youth and Sports whether, in regard to the Advisers appointed by his Ministry, he
will state their names, indicating, in each case –
(a) their respective
(i) date of appointment
(ii) qualifications, and
(iii) terms and conditions of appointment, and
(b) table copy of their contract of appointment.
Mr Ritoo: Mr Speaker, Sir, I would like to inform the House that I am availing of
the services of four Advisers on sports and youth matters and one Adviser on information
matters. However, in view of the specificity of my Ministry and in order to assist sports
federations in the promotion of their respective sports disciplines, my Ministry is also having 16
coaches appointed as Adviser/coach who are attached to various sports federations. I am equally
having one Engineer as Project Coordinator Adviser to supervise the infrastructural projects of
my Ministry.

Besides in few cases namely, football, swimming and boxing, we are having the technical
expertise of National Technical Director, that is, DTN for the overall planning and responsibility
of these disciplines.
This is a practice which has been adopted by all my predecessors.
The names and details as requested are being tabled.
Mr Guimbeau: Is the hon. Minister going to table all the terms and conditions?
Mr Ritoo: I am tabling the contract of the Advisers.
Mr Guimbeau: Comment se fait-il qu’avec tous les conseillers du ministre à ce jour, ni
le ministère ni le ministre n’arrive à relancer le football mauricien ?
(Interruptions)
Mr Speaker: It does not arise from this question. I will suspend for one and a half hours.
