Italian Interior Minister Roberto Maroni is in Malta for talks with the Prime Minister and with Home Affairs Minister Carm Mifsud Bonnici.

Sig Maroni arrived yesterday evening and was greeted by Dr Mifsud Bonnici.

A spokesman for the ministry said the talks are to focus on immigration.

The meeting comes just over a week after European leaders adopted the Immigration Pact, which includes measures on the repatriation of migrants and burden-sharing.

Dr Mifsud Bonnici last week also discussed immigration during talks in Nicosia with the Cypriot Minister of Home Affairs.
