PA chairman asks Labour MP to report corruption to police

Not a man to take allegations of corruption lightly, Planning Authority Chairman Andrew Calleja yesterday wrote to Labour party spokesman Charles Buhagiar requesting him to forward any damning information he might have to the Permanent Commission Against Corruption or the Police.

On Monday in Parliament, Mr Buhagiar alleged that he knew of cases of abuse in the Planning Authority’s directorate. He said that the Opposition had evidence that certain case officers at the Malta Environment and Planning Authority were receiving money to process files.

The PA chairman asked Mr Buhagiar to come forward with the evidence for the good of the institution and in the best interest of society.
