SINGAPORE — While taking care of a one-year-old baby who was sick, a domestic helper forcefully pressed his abdomen, hit him in the face and punched him in the chest. She then applied sugar to the baby's bruises, and later lied to his parents that he was injured from a fall. The baby's father discovered the abuse after viewing closed-circuit television footage. Myanmar national Hsu Yee Mon, 29, was sentenced to a year's jail on Jan 21 after she pleaded guilty to one charge of ill-treating a child. Details about the child and the family's residence were redacted from court documents to protect the victim's identity. The court heard that the incident happened on July 1, 2024. Court documents did not state when Hsu Yee Mon started working for the family. The baby was feeling unwell that day, so his parents took only his siblings to a childcare centre, and left the baby in their helper's care before going to work. At about 6.30pm, the helper fed the infant dinner while he sat in a high chair in the living room. As she fed him, he began to cry.

The European Union counts representative democracy as one of its foundational tenets. In that regard, the mandate of a directly elected Member of the European Parliament plays a crucial role. A Member's mandate includes an immunity status, protecting Members' independence to exercise their mandate freely. This legal status can prevent legal action, measures or even criminal investigation against the Member suspected of wrongdoing. Nevertheless, this parliamentary immunity is not an individual entitlement putting Members beyond the reach of the legal system, but rather an institutional privilege of the Parliament. Members' parliamentary immunity is not however fully harmonised under EU law, which refers some aspects of parliamentary immunity to the Member States. The diverse national understanding of parliamentary immunity can significantly influence, among other things, when and how a Member's mandate might end. More specifically, national legal variations can affect criminal proceedings against a Member that, if leading to a conviction, represent the most obvious reason for the involuntary end of a Member's parliamentary mandate (termination of mandate) in many Member States. In addition to differing levels of parliamentary immunity, there are differences in the reasons allowed nationally for ending national parliamentary mandates. Since EU law permits Member States to apply their own reasons when terminating a Member's mandate, national laws come into play once again. To analyse this complex web of legal settings applying to the end of a Member's mandate and resulting from the combination of EU law and diverse national rules potentially applicable to Members by analogy, this briefing draws upon national responses to a survey carried out for the European Centre for Parliamentary Research and Documentation.
