A €356,000 tender for consultancy services for the establishment of a digital hub in Gozo was awarded to a consortium whose members cannot be identified.

Gozo Connect won the contract to determine the technical and financial feasibility for the implementation of a digital hub.

Yet efforts to identify the companies involved in the bidding consortium yielded no results.

Checks with the Malta Financial Services Authority confirmed there was no company registered in that name.

This newspaper was referred to the government’s Commerce Department, also known as the Trade Department, but was told no assistance could be given because records were based on personal details.

When Times of Malta contacted the Department of Contracts, which awarded the tender, it was told the department was not obliged to reveal the information of the companies involved.
