THE Dutch MP Peter Omtzigt, rapporteur for
the Council of Europe's resolution on Daphne
Caruana Galizia's assassination and the rule of
law in Malta, has decreed that Malta has failed
to implement the demands of the Council's par-
liamentary assembly.
Omtzigt is charged with following-up on the
progress of the resolution's implementation,
which addressed Malta's constitutional and
institutional guarantees of the rule of law; alle-
gations of high-level corruption and impunity,
on which Caruana Galizia had reported; and
the investigation into the murder of Caruana
Galizia and prosecution of those suspected of
being responsible.
In his concluding remarks, Omtzigt said
Malta's strengthening of rule of law had been
"unsatisfactory overall, with
mixed results."
