Updated - Cardiologist Albert Fenech has filed a request for a warrant of prohibitory injunction against the Minister of Health in order to stop the process for the division of the Department of Cardiac Services at Mater Dei Hospital into two departments.

The application was provisionally upheld until the court hears the case on December 19.

Prof Fenech referred to an earlier judicial protest and said the decision was not based on firm medical principles.

The decision, he said, would cause serious damage to patients.

Drs Andrew Borg Cardona and Jason Azzopardi signed the request.
