Members of Parliament are from next month to be provided with access to the online archives of timesofmalta.com, The Times and The Sunday Times to aid their parliamentary duties.

Speaker Michael Frendo said that the archives of The Times were “very important and historical” dating back to 1930.

He said that as Speaker, he was trying to give MPs the possibility of carrying out their own research on databases.

The Times archive will be the first database available to all MPs.
