Alfred Grixti had instructed all officials of the Employment and Training Corporation to sign off their communications in red
Opposition MP Toni Bezzina put the following question to Education Minister Evarist Bartolo in parliament a few days ago:
Jista’ l-Ministru jispjega x’inhi r-raġuni għaliex il-firem fuq e-mails tal-uffiċjali tal-Employment and Training Corporation ġie innutat li qed isiru bil-kulur aħmar? Jista’ jgħid minn min ittieħdet din id-deċiżjoni?
Evarist Bartolo’s reply:
Ngħarraf lill-Onor. Interpellant li din id-deċiżjoni issa ġiet revokata. Infurmat li dik kienet deċiżjoni tal-eks Chairman li, skont hu, bħala parti minn eżerċizzju ta’ rebrandingintenzjonat biex tissaħħaħ il-corporate image tal-istess Korporazzjoni, kien ġie deċiż li dan ir-rebranding kellu jinkludi fih il-kulur oriġinali tal-logo tal-ETC, jiġifieri l-aħmar li qed jirreferi għalih l-Onor. Interpellant. Id-deċiżjoni, li kienet tinkludi l-firem fuq e-mails, kienet komunikata lill-ħaddiema kollha tal-ETC f’Jannar li għadda.
The ‘eks Chairman’ in question is Alfred Grixti, who has now been appointed chairman of the Foundation for Social Welfare Services.

The so-called rebranding exercise also included a change in colours of the logo from blue to red.
Mr Grixti also went to the extreme of painting certain areas of the ETC complex in red as well.
Somehow he wanted to make certain that it was Labour that ruled the day – typical Mintoffjan.
And to thank him for services rendered he has now been given a bigger organisation to ruin.
