Speaker's daughter one of two new magistrates approved by Cabinet

Two new magistrates have been approved by the Cabinet of Ministers – they are Ingrid Zammit Young and Caroline Farrugia Frendo. Dr Farrugia Frendo is the daughter of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Anglu Farrugia.

In this legislature, the number of new judges and magistrates will rise to 13, with 62% of them being women, the government said in a statement.

This will bring the number of women forming part of the judiciary to 20, while there are 24 men. 

Dr Zammit Young, born in 1973 in Coispicua, became Notary Public in 1995 and a lawyer in 1997. She worked for many years as a lawyer with Go plc.

Dr Farrugia Frendo, born in December 1983, graduated as a Notary Public in 2006 and a lawyer in 2008. She specialised in family law and civil law.
