Government gave in to calls for publication of Greco report after Opposition pressure – PN

In a statement, the Nationalist party said that the Government had to authorize the publication of the Greco report after the PN pressured them to.

"The Opposition is now waiting for the Greco report to be published fully, and that all the needed changes are immediately implemented to strengthen the rule of law."

They maintain that the Greco report concluded that the justice system is currently paralyzed, and that there needs to be more work for the fight against corruption to be taken seriously.

"The Greco report criticizes the fact that no action was taken with regards to Minister Konrad Mizzi and the Chief of Staff of the Prim Minister Keith Schembri, and the fact that a public inquiry into the assassination of the journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia is still being refused."

The conclusions of this report are of national importance, they continue, and will have consecuences on our country, "and the socialist government cannot continue dragging its feed when it comes to implementing changes that various international and European institutions such as the European Commission and Venice Commission, have spoken of.
