PRIME Minister Robert Abela has
vowed to address concerns raised by
the European Commission on Malta's
citizenship-by-investment scheme.
e European Commission yesterday
said it will be taking further steps in the
infringement procedures against Malta
with regards to the scheme.
Abela said that government will be go-
ing ahead with discussions "in the spirit
of dialogue", while making the legal case
that citizenship falls under the compe-
tence of each individual Member State,
and not of the EU.
Abela vows to address
concerns on citizenship-
by-investment scheme
'Investors will
respond if the
government
is strong and
confident'
