Commissioner for Laws Franco Debono has been granted a driver and a Volkswagen Passat car which was once used by then parliamentary secretary Carmelo Mifsud Bonnici.

Dr Debono caused Dr Mifsud Bonnici’s resignation as Home Affairs Minister when he voted against him in Parliament last year.

Justice Ministry Parliamentary Secretary Owen Bonnici confirmed that Dr Debono has been granted a driver and car. He said the perk was standard for commissioners and Commissioner for Children Helen D’Amato has the same facility.

Dr Debono is receiving €24,000 a year and has been exempted from giving up his private practice as a criminal lawyer.
