Wilfred Collet

[2] His sister Clara Collet (1860–1948) was a noted social reformer during the early part of the twentieth century.

Wilfred Collet obtained his degree from University College, London in 1881 and joined the Colonial service.

[7] In February 1922, a three-man delegation from India visited British Guiana, consisting of the Deputy President of the Madras Legislative Assembly, and member of the Servants of India Society and the Director of Agriculture of Bombay.

The delegation wanted to discuss a proposal for translocating Indian labourers to work on the sugar plantations.

Collet was not favourable to the scheme but eventually proposed a new plan with much fewer benefits.
