Labour leader Alfred Sant said today that his party will wait for civil society to express itself on divorce.

Asked whether the MLP would open up the discussion on divorce and what his party’s stand is, Dr Sant said:

“We’ll wait for civil society to express itself and once there’s momentum on this, we’ll open the debate that, if needs be, will lead to the necessary reform, as had happened in 1996-1998.

The MLP is currently focusing on family issues as part of its electoral campaign.
