Too Early To Discuss Helena Dalli As Next President, Says Bernard Grech

Too Early To Discuss Helena Dalli As Next President, Says Bernard Grech
Jan 14 2024 Share

MaltaDaily is currently informed that Helena Dalli is currently one of the favourites for the role being pushed by the Labour Party. However, Bernard Grech said that it’s too premature to discuss Dalli as the next President. 

This will be the first time that the President of Malta will be chosen by two-thirds of the members of parliament. 

Prior to this, a candidate simply required a simple majority. The Opposition leader told MaltaDaily’s Keane Cutajar that he will not be accepting any last minute surprises or names and calls on the Prime Minister to address the issue as soon as possible.

Speaking to Malta Daily during an official event held by the Nationalist Party, Opposition Leader Bernard Grech stated that Prime Minister Robert Abela, till this very day, has not yet sat down with him to discuss the next president of Malta.

Asking our followers on polls, many people suggested names such as former Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi, former Opposition leader Simon Busuttil, former Foreign Affairs Minister Evarist Bartolo and even current environment minister Miriam Dalli.

Speaking during a political activity in Fgura, Prime Minister Robert Abela announced that the Valletta Ferry System will be given for free for those with a Tal-Linja Card as of tomorrow. 

This was the first major change announced by the Labour government since the cabinet reshuffle and the swearing in of new Transport Minister Chris Bonett. 

As of now, a personalised Tallinja Card for adults, students or Gozitan residents cost €1.30 for a day fare and €1.65 for a night fare. It cost 45c for children or concessions on both day and night fares. 

The Valletta Ferry Services operates between Valletta and the Three Cities (Cospicua) and Sliema Ferries. 

The system will now be made free for anyone in possession of a Tallinja card, making transportation between the aforementioned localities more accessible.
