President Marie Louise Coleiro Preca yesterday insisted on making the Constitution accessible to children.
“We are a small but very rich country and it is a pity that our people are not knowledgeable about the Constitution. I feel it is time that people understood the Constitution because it gives us our identity,” she said, reiterating her call for a socio-political update of the country’s supreme law.
Ms Coleiro Preca was speaking at the launch of the Kumitat għall-għarfien tal Kostituzzjoni, chaired by lawyer Franco Debono.
The committee includes Austin Bencini, Veronique Dalli, Andrew Azzopardi, Raymond Mangion, Oliver Friggieri and Fr Saviour Chircop.
