Apparently her public dialogue did not go beyond the clan of the masons, labourers, plasterers, electricians, plumbers, woodworkers, aluminum fitters and brick factories. It takes an effort to deal with all of them at once, let alone the public.

In reply to Angus Black. Kindly note that it's Paba Builders and not Pada. There may be other companies by that name.

In reply to xifajk. Basing the national budget on "optimisim" does not really say much on those drawing it up. A budget should be based on reality.

In whose name were the enforcement orders issued?

Were they issued to Dalli or to Pada Builders Ltd? If issued to Dalli, were they valid and enforceable?

If Ministers are required to list interest in companies expressed as a meaningless percentage of ownership, why is it not a requirement that the company’s financial statements form part of the Minister’s declaration of assets?

Had that been the case, then the value of the Minister’s share could have been financially quantified.

In reply to ChrisM. That's correct. Her assets are the shares in the company not the house.
