Labour leader Joseph Muscat has set up a commission formed of MEP Louis Grech and former Tourism Minister Karmenu Vella to coordinate changes to the MLP’s structures and operating procedures.

The party said the commission’s work would go beyond the amendments to the party statute, which are currently under discussion.

The commission will consider the reports drawn up in the wake of the general election defeats of 2003 and 2008 and coordinate changes in the party structures to ensure that the various sections of the party function more efficiently.

The commission will report directly to Dr Muscat and has been asked to complete its work by year’s end.
