If there is no justice, how can there be a Commission for the “administration” of justice? The Chairman of this commission will soon be going Down Under in the hope that matters will cool down and the “friend” of his daughter-in-law will try and see sense herself and resign.

In reply to freefalling. Wrong. You cannot play safe and stay on the fence, when you are supposed to be a guardian of the constitution. Punto e basta.

In reply to Drinu. Anyone can protest. It's just too much hassle for some.

According to The Sunday Times list of the president’s appointments for this week, a meeting of the Commission for the Administration of Justice is scheduled for this week.

Let us hope the magistrate did not give any interviews to Saviour Balzan. I am not saying anything new, but according to para. 28 of the Code of Ethics for the Judiciary of Malta:
“Members of the Judiciary shall avoid communicating with the media…” and “In general, members of the Judiciary shall not seek publicity or the approval of the public or the media.”

There is a chap called Toni who writes frequently on this blog, and he often repeats “milli ghedna ma hemm xejn.” I think this can be added as paragraph 30 of the Code of Ethics for the Judiciary.

In reply to Seguccio.

It is either remove the magistrate, or let us change the Commission for Administration of Justice.

If we want to have a modern state, built on accountability etc then it all starts from the top. The President is accountable to the people as much as the magistrate, even though, like the magistrate, the President is not elected by the people.

We do not wish to hear about a trip to Australia, but about justice being properly delivered at home.
