The Broadcasting Authority said today that it had granted the Nationalist Party a right of reply to an item broadcast on One News on May 31 where it was reported that PN General Secretary Paul Borg Olivier had been informed of a case of alleged corruption in the process for the privatisation of the super-yachts facility of Malta Shipyards.

Dr Borg Olivier had denied the claim to the same journalist.

The BA said that without going into the merits of the item, it had ordered One News to carry Dr Borg Olivier's denial.
