Sir Clement T. Maynard, KCMG (11 September 1928 – 2 October 2009), was a Deputy Prime Minister of the Bahamas (1985–92),[1] and deputy leader of the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP). His public career ran the gamut from trade unionist to Senator to Member of Parliament.[2]
Maynard was one of only two people, the other Sir Lynden Pindling, to serve in every Bahamian cabinet post, which he did between 18 January 1967 to 18 August 1992.[1][3] Most notably as Minister of Tourism, a post he held continuously for a decade, making him the Bahamas' longest-serving Minister of Tourism.[4]
He was also the father of former Attorney-General Allyson Maynard Gibson.[5]
