Minister for Social Dialogue Helena Dalli told Parliament yesterday that she had found that a car used by the former MCESD chairman – leased on contract until 2014 – had been returned to the contractor but the rent was still being paid according to the contract.
Answering a question on car rentals by Jason Azzopardi (PN), Dr Dalli said she had leased an official ministry car for only six days until the revelation was made. She said that she would now be using this car.
Dr Dalli said that no car was bought or ordered by her ministry. The MCESD chairman is not granted a car in terms of his contract.
