Sarah Flood-Beaubrun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sarah Lucy Flood-Beaubrun (born January 8, 1969) is a Saint Lucian lawyer and politician.

She was elected in 1997 to represent the Castries Central constituency and served as minister of Health, Human Services, Family Affairs and Women in the SLP administration.

Flood-Beaubrun left the SLP government in 2004 after publicly criticizing her former cabinet colleagues over a bill permitting the legal termination of pregnancies in special circumstances. She went on to join the Organization for National Empowerment, a fledging third party that had amongst its founder members former SLP stalwart Peter Josie.

Flood-Beaubrun continued to serve as an Independent member of parliament until tendering her resignation in January 2006, triggering a by-election held on 13 March 2006, which was won by independent candidate Richard Frederick.
