The decision, taken by the Office of the Prime Minister, will mean the 74-year-old MP will be paid extra over his parliamentary honorarium and pension. The Gozo Ministry confirmed he has been recruited as a consultant with a salary of “under €12,000 annually”. Mr Debono Grech declined to comment.

Mr Debono Grech served as minister in the Mintoff and Sant governments, his responsibilities including agriculture and transport.
