FOR A JUST, MODERN, STRONG
AND BEAUTIFUL MALTA

Malta is heading into a new era, and it’s crucial that you take the lead. We’re aiming for a future where our communities are vibrant and genuine, not downtrodden and lifeless. A place where work pays and inspires our youth to make the country more beautiful.

Right now, things might seem bleak and discouraging. But even though I sometimes feel angry and frustrated, I haven’t lost hope—not even a little bit. Europe too can help in making Malta more beautiful. With my experience as the Secretary General of one of the four largest parties in the European Parliament for over six years, I know what we need to do to achieve this.

The NAO investigation report, asked by Cassola's Momentum, just tabled in parliament has confirmed us right. The investigation reveals:

a. Zammit Tabona's Fortina was being leaked valuations by Lands Authority. Nao writes: "No reasonable explanation was put forward by either the Lands Authority or Fortina as to how a sensitive document, meant to be accessible solely to the former, ended up in the possession of the latter, raising serious concerns regarding the transparency of the process and the integrity of those involved".b. NAO concluded that the Government accepted €8.1 million for waivers that the NAO independently valued at €21 million, representing a detriment to public finances of €12.9 million.c. "Furthermore, a critical, substantially higher valuation report by an independent audit firm, commissioned by the Lands Authority's Board of Governors (BoG), was deliberately suppressed by the then Chair of the BoG".d, "Chief of Staff's Involvement: The Chief of Staff OPM, Keith Schembri, "convened a meeting with the firm" to discuss its valuation and later "authorised the settlement of the invoices."● The NAO found this involvement "anomalous and questionable" as "there was no functional link between the role of the Chief of Staff OPM and the settlement of fees due by the Lands Authority."e. Prime Minister Joseph Muscat's Involvement: The Prime Minister recalled a meeting with Fortina and his Chief of Staff around October/November 2018 to "push for progress" due to Fortina's project stalling and the involvement of a major gaming company relocating to Malta".Momentum insists: "Apart from the non-transparent behaviour of the Lands Authority, it is scandalous that Prime Minister Joseph Muscat himself got involved in the talks to speed up Fortina's interests, to the detriment of the Maltese taxpayer, and that his Chief of Staff, Keith Schembri, also convened meetings which he had no authority to convene or attend.Muscat and Schembri should be investigated for their non transparent manoeuvres to favour Fortina, whose owner is a major PL donor". ...
