PN deputy leader Beppe Fenech Adami has urged the Prime Minister to publish the terms of reference and deadline for an inquiry into allegations of ministerial interference in a police drug investigation.
The case concerns allegations that two "senior politicians" intervened to enable two youths suspected of drug trafficking to change their police statements in Gozo.

He blasted what he described as a "fake" inquiry saying no terms of reference have been published nor any timeframe for its conclusion.
Dr Fenech Adami, who is shadow minister for home affairs, argued that the Prime Minister did not actually need the inquiry to establish who the two politicians were.
All he needed to do was to call Cabinet members individually and establish who was in Gozo at the time, and then who had called at the Gozo ministry, he said.
Dr Fenech Adami said that instead of ministers admitting their responsibilities, there was now a situation where anonymous letters were sent out to try to frame others.
Yesterday Dr Fenech Adami tabled in parliament an anonymous letter which sought to blame Parliamentary Secretary Justyne Caruana and new magistrate Grazio Mercieca for what had happened.
"I felt obliged to flag the anonymous letter as this is part of a campaign to put investigators off track. There are people who have an interest to take this inquiry away from the truth," he said.
Fenech Adami defends Net TV
Asked whether it made sense for db Group-owned catering company Sky Gourmet, which supplies Air Malta, to sponsor a Net TV programme, Dr Fenech Adami said the PN's television station was in line with the law. He added, that he would not be discussing this commercial relationship in public.
The question was made in the wake of allegations that the PN circumvented party financing laws, by issuing invoices on behalf of its media company in return for large donations from db Group belonging to businessman Silvio Debono.
Opposition leader seeing PN disintegrating - PL
In a statement, the Labour Party said that the one thing Dr Fenech Adami did not mention was the inquiry about him which established that a police investigation stopped as soon as his name came up.
Because of this inquiry, a systematic attack on the party's other deputy leader started, making it clear that the only emergency today was that of the Opposition leader who was seeing his party disintegrating.
