Malta Enterprise has temporarily suspended the Energy Grant Scheme after it noticed that certain quotations submitted by beneficiaries may not be in bona fede.

It said in a statement it noticed this during routine checks and the matter has now been referred to the police for investigation.

In line with corporate governance policies, the corporation also asked the Internal Audit Committee to review compliance with internal procedures.

It said that the relevant beneficiaries will be informed individually of this development and claim processing will re-commence once the final results of the investigation are known and any necessary corrective actions are taken.

Malta Enterprise said it regretted any inconvenience caused and augured that the matter would be concluded in the shortest time possible.
