This article examines the operation of the principle of responsible government in the Commonwealth Caribbean both in relation to the prorogation of parliament and parliamentary motions of no confidence. It identifies several instances of prorogation that have occurred in the post-independence era which were incompatible with the principle of responsible government because they were intended to avoid the government being held to account by parliament. It also examines the ways in which an incumbent government might seek to frustrate motions of no confidence and how the courts and other key constitutional actors should respond in such circumstances.
