Some 280 children packed the Ambassadors Hall at Castille earlier today to present Prime Minister Joseph Muscat with a consultation document on the selection of a new Child Commissioner.

The document was drafted by student representatives from every school in Malta and Gozo. The 44-page document includes several recommendations for the new commissioner, including a sympathetic nature and forgiving qualities.

Junior Eurovision song contest winner Gaia Cauchi was also in attendance and was presented with a gift from Social Solidarity Minister Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca.
