The changing of the guard in front of the Palace in Valletta will resume on January 1, Minister for Home Affairs Manuel Mallia confirmed.
The Ceremony of the Changing of the Guard was temporarily suspended last March due to what the Armed Forces of Malta had said were other commitments.
Answering a question by Jason Azzopardi (PN), Dr Mallia said the suspension was necessary for the soldiers to undergo training to reflect the importance of the job.
