The PBS board of directors made a decision to appeal the recent court case regarding the dismissal of their former CEO, John Bundy.
The past Industrial Tribunal was concluded in favour of Mr Bundy and he was granted a compensation of €26,488, which the PBS was ordered to pay within one month.
After taking three different opinions of advice the board has decided to go ahead with the appeal as there are solid grounds for appeal.

You know what day it is. That’s right, it’s Maltese Music Monday and as per usual, we like to keep you updated on what’s going on in the Maltese Music Scene and this week, we have some great ones!
First in line, we have young local musician Luke Chappell with his 45-second demo ‘Find a way back Home’, a raw sonic serenade combining ambient elements and touching guitar, accompanied by haunting vocals by Chappell himself. The track comes as a follow-up to his previous banger ‘Lonely Again’ which surpassed one million streams on Spotify and hit the ground running with the local charts.
Up next, a relative newcomer to the scene – Jolene Samhan. A Nadur resident with a Brazilian, Palestinian and German-Polish background, Samhan’s ‘February 1st’ is her debut track and her unique sound is sure to pave the way for a great journey in the local music scene. This is Samhan’s second foray into the local scene with her first being ‘Place’, a collaboration with Micimago and Shaun Axiaq which went on to win multiple awards and top the charts locally.
Finally, not exactly a song but news which surely shook the Maltese Music landscape. Local heartthrob Dav. Jr took to Instagram to announce that he will join Maltese band ‘The Busker’ as their lead singer and frontman. With a new frontman in Dav. Jr and the debut of a fresh new sound, the future looks bright for The Busker.

Universal Pictures have just dropped a trailer for the latest edition of the Fast & Furious saga by the name of F9 and what better way to unveil it than the Super Bowl.
The star-studded series looks to be back and bigger than ever featuring some familiar faces in the form of John Cena as the movie’s new big bad or a returning favourite, Sung Kang as Han.
What lies ahead for F9 is truly a mystery but we can’t wait to see the blockbuster franchise make a long overdue return to our screens on May 8.
