INTERVIEW
MT2
Justice Minister
miffed but does
not use power
to request
probe into
'irresponsible'
magistrate
ROBERT Abela and Ber-
nard Grech are refusing to say
whether they personally met
Villa Rosa developer Anton
Camilleri to discuss local plan
changes before they became
public.
Nonetheless, a spokesperson
for the Prime Minister told
MaltaToday "government and
its authorities and entities hold
regular meetings with local and
foreign investors, as is their du-
ty to do".
Specifically on the Villa Rosa
development, the OPM spokes-
person added, "anything short
of this would be inconceivable,
particularly when speaking of a
proposed investment of a third
of a billion Euro in Malta's
economy".
