THE ALL-NEW B10 STARTING FROM €20,900* (*2025 GOVERNMENT GRANTS AND SCRAPPAGE SCHEME INCLUDED. TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLY). mt SURVEY SUNDAY • 1 FEBRUARY 2026 | maltatoday ning and Gozo Minister Clint Camilleri, who climbed up three places over last year. Nonetheless, like all other min- isters, Camilleri saw his score decline by 0.52 points. Camill- eri who faced a more tumultu- ous year due to a controversial planning reform unveiled last summer, only scored higher than Anton Refalo, Chris Bon- net and Roderick Galdes. In Gozo, where he ranks third after Clyde Caruana and Jo Etienne Abela, he gets a much better score of 6.35. Chris Bonett: Mean score 4.74 In a country where traf- fic is a top concern, Trans- port Minister Chris Bonett s h o u l d e r s the brunt of public dis- satisfaction. The overall result puts him in 12th place as was the case last year, even if his score has dropped by 0.64 points. Still, it is worth not- ing that the difference be- tween Bonett, Camilleri and Zrinzo Azzopardi is not sta- tistically significant. Bonett fares particularly badly with non-voters amongst which he scores just 3.03 points. In this category he is the least rated minister after Galdes. He is also given a very low score by PN voters (2.86) but racks up 6.91 points among Labour voters. Anton Refalo: Mean score 4.41 Agriculture Minister Anton Refalo, who was first elected to parliament in 1987 and has served in every Cabinet since 2013, is the second lowest-ranked minister in the survey. He is also given the second worst rating (6.56) by Labour voters and PN voters (2.24). In Gozo, he is given a rela- tively higher score of 6.11. Roderick Galdes: Mean score 4.20 Roderick Galdes, who was still serving as housing min- ister when the survey was conducted, emerges as the worst-rated minister in the survey with a low score of 4.2. This represents a decline from the 5.31 points he re- ceived last year. The survey coincided with news stories highlighting his property deals with major developers that were also involved in government business. The survey, however, preceded Galdes's resigna- tion, which was triggered by new revelations. Signif- icantly, Galdes emerges as the least popular minister among Labour voters, who gave him a score of 6.49, down from 7.35 last year. 0 10 0 10 This survey was conducted between Wednesday 5 January and Friday 16 January. The survey is based on a representative sample of 813 respondents. The sampling approach followed a stratified random design, ensuring proportional representation across key demographic variables such as age, gender, and locality. 'Don't knows' were allocated through a statistical imputation. At a 95% confidence level, the overall survey results carry a margin of error of ±3.5%. It is important to note that while the overall sample provides robust national-level estimates, the margin of error increases when results are disaggregated into smaller strata or sub-groups (for example, by age bracket, region, or voting intention). This occurs because smaller sample sizes within each subgroup carry higher statistical variability. Therefore, findings at sub-group level should be interpreted with caution and viewed as indicative trends rather than precise estimates. All data collection adhered to professional survey standards, with strict quality control applied at each stage to minimise potential sources of bias, including questionnaire design, fieldwork supervision, and data processing.

Respondents' individual scores were collected across the full scale but only the resulting mean rating is published. Respondents who could not rate a particular minister were excluded. The survey has a margin of error of ±3.5 percentage points at national level, with higher margins applying to demographic breakdowns due to smaller sample sizes. While the survey's margin of error applies to percentage results, the mean scores on the 0–10 scale have a separate statistical uncertainty which is significantly smaller. 0 10 Roderick Galdes: 4.20 Overall Male Female Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Jonathan Attard: 4.82 Overall 0 10 0 10 Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi: 4.76 Overall 0 10 0 10 Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Clint Camilleri: 4.76 Overall 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Chris Bonnet: 4.74 Overall 0 10 0 10 0 10 Male Female PN Voters 0 10 0 10 0 10 Non-voters PL Voters Anton Refalo: 4.41 Overall 0 10 Roderick Galdes: 4.20 Overall Male Female Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Jonathan Attard: 4.82 Overall 0 10 0 10 Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi: 4.76 Overall 0 10 0 10 Male Female 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Clint Camilleri: 4.76 Overall 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 0 10 PN Voters Non-voters PL Voters Chris Bonnet: 4.74 Overall 0 10 0 10 0 10 Male Female PN Voters 0 10 0 10 0 10 Non-voters PL Voters Anton Refalo: 4.41 Overall 0 10 0 10 This survey was conducted between Wednesday 5 January and Friday 16 January.
