Huysmans government

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Huysmans government was in office in Belgium from August 2, 1946 to March 13, 1947. When Justice Minister Van Glabbeke was accused of obstructing proceedings against a company accused of economic collaboration with the German occupation, the Van government turned itself in Acker III behind the Minister of Justice to prevent a vote of no confidence against him. The government lost the following vote of confidence in parliament with 79 votes to 78. The new government of the socialist Camille Huysmans , like its predecessor, included the socialists ( PSB-BSP ), the liberals ( PL-LP ) and the communists ( PCB-KPB ). Huysman's government was broken up over a conflict over coal prices and the government's stance on mining companies that led to the resignation of communist ministers.
