Ivan Camilleri as Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Toronto TORONTO (28 November 2020) – Pope Francis has appointed Fr. Ivan Camilleri as auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Toronto. Following his episcopal ordination, the new bishop will join three auxiliary bishops currently assisting the Archbishop of Toronto, Cardinal Thomas Collins, in serving the faithful of the Archdiocese of Toronto. Bishop-designate Camilleri commented on the appointment from the Holy Father: “I am very humbled by the trust that Pope Francis and Cardinal Collins have placed in me to serve the Archdiocese of Toronto in this ministry. I am grateful to His Eminence for his leadership and support, and I look forward to serving him and the people of the archdiocese in this way.” Cardinal Collins welcomed the announcement: “I am most grateful to Pope Francis for the appointment of Bishop-designate Camilleri as the newest Auxiliary Bishop in our archdiocese. He knows the community well and has been a tremendous source of support during my time as archbishop. I welcome him to the episcopacy and invite the priests of the archdiocese as well as the faithful to pray for him as he prepares for this new chapter of ministry.” Fr. Camilleri was born April 18, 1969 in Sliema, Malta. His family moved to Canada in 1980. He studied at Laurentian University earning a Bachelor of Commerce and then at The Edinburgh Business School earning a Master of Business Administration. After some years working in finance, he entered the seminary in 2001, completing a Bachelor of Sacred Theology and a Master of Divinity.

    MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 349 December 2020 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 349 December 2020 History http://www.wsc.com.mt/ The Water Services Corporation was set up in 1992 to produce and distribute potable water in the Maltese Islands. On the 20th January 1992 the Water Services Corporation was founded by means of the Act of Parliament No. XXIII of 1991. During its 20 year existence, the corporation has transformed the quality of drinking water and how it is produced and distributed. Fifty-seven percent of Malta’s potable water is produced by three reverse osmosis plants whilst the remainder is pumped from underground aquifers. The electricity consumed to produce a cubic metre of water is nowadays much less than used to be consumed just a short decade ago. Infrastructural leakages too have been reduced by such a large amount that we are now producing less water than we used to in years past, whilst still meeting a much greater demand. One of the WSC’s most significant milestones was, however, the incorporation of the former Drainage Department in 2004, making it responsible for the complete water cycle from production and distribution of water, to the collection and treatment of wastewater. From 2005 to 2011 three completely new wastewater treatment plants were constructed, one in Gozo, another in Mellieha and the ultimate one at Ta’ Barkat which became fully operational by the end of May 2011. So for the first time ever, Malta is treating 100% of its wastewater prior to being discharged at sea. Malta is the first country in the Mediterranean and only the seventh in Europe to reach this goal.

The LIBE delegation to Malta was organised in the light of latest developments in the investigation on the murder of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia and the ensuing growing distrust in the population towards the institutions, in particular the government. The delegation came to reaffirm that Malta is fully part of the EU and as such, preserving integrity in the country is of utmost importance for the Union as a whole, the foundation of which relies on mutual trust. The MEPs presence in the country was meant to send a clear message that EU institutions are concerned about the situation in the country. While earlier delegations had visited the country with a broader scope, ranging from the ongoing police inquiry on the journalist’s murder to corruption issues, regulation of the finance industry and the selling of passports, this mission was to focus on the investigation and the functioning of the Rule of Law in the country.

  • HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES Annual Report
    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Annual Report 2014 1. HOUSE BUSINESS 1.1 Overview As can be seen from the information contained in this report, 2014 was another busy year for the Maltese House of Representatives and its members. The report of the year’s activities highlights both the traditional legislative and scrutiny parliamentary functions carried out by the House and also the function of parliamentary diplomacy, the role of which is developing steadily from one year to the next, particularly in the field of interparliamentary cooperation in European Union affairs. This year, the House, in a special sitting held on 4 April in the Throne Room of the Grand Master’s Palace, unanimously approved the election of former Minister for the Family and Social Solidarity, Marie Louise Coleiro Preca, as the next President of the Republic of Malta, making her the 11th President to serve the country since Malta became a republic in 1974. This led to the first change in the composition of the House of the year. The second change happened in October when former Minister for Tourism resigned from the House in order to become Malta’s representative in the European Commission. 1.1.1 New initiatives taken by Parliament in 2014 A number of new initiatives were taken by the House in 2014: In addition to the quarterly publication mill-Parlament which was launched at the beginning of the current Legislature, the Office of the Speaker published the first two volumes of Is-Sedja Titkellem, a collection of rulings by the Chair.

If the allegations are correct, then corrupt officials have issued up to 88,000 Schengen Visas and an unknown number of Medical Visas, permitting an inflow in to the European Union of persons that could be potential security threats and/or illegal migrants. Furthermore, there are indications that persons that should have been entitled to Medical Visas free of charge might have been forced to pay for them or, in some cases not been able to access healthcare that under government agreements were guaranteed. The scheme, if the assertions prove to be correct, has netted the persons involved millions of euros.
