The article by George Pullicino, titled ‘China energy contract a sham’, which appeared yesterday, had been submitted for publication before Shanghai Electric Power advanced €250 million to Enemalta as part of the deal through which it will acquire a 33 per cent shareholding in the company and a majority stake in the BWSC plant. However, this development was overlooked at editing stage and the part saying “there is no commitment when payment is to be made” still appeared.
The error is regretted.
