					<description><![CDATA[Leave them to it, all they&#039;re doing is confirm there&#039;s something to hide. 

And when that&#039;s the case, the shape of things to come is even more controversy. 

All MP&#039;s were in the house, Carmelo Abela actually put the  blame on Tonio Fenech for calling the PAC at a day&#039;s notice.

As if the Opposition chairing the PAC isn&#039;t one of the checks and balances to hold government to its responsibilities. 

Labour mistakes the democratic vote for a right to go beyond regulated mandate.]]></description>
