The Nationalist Party is willing “to go all the way” to rectify political discrimination enjoyed by the Labour government through the use of requisitioned public properties for party purposes, PN general secretary Chris Said said today.

Speaking during the Radju Malta programme Ghandi x’Nghid, he said that while the PN agreed with the principles of the Party Financing Bill, for it to be a fair law, parties had to start on a level playing field.

He said that six of the properties held by the PL were requisitioned from private families and the party should start by returning these properties.

Asked about the Armier boathouses, Dr Said said the PN was willing to take difficult decisions. The issue was a complex one and the situation of different boathouses was different.

He criticised the government’s decision to provide boathouses with smart metres saying that for a property to get electricity it had, according to law, to be covered by a compliance certificate. The Prime Minister, he said, should not place himself above the law and ignore it.
