Nationalist MPs are still being kept in the dark about a meeting date for the parliamentary group, according to information reaching the Times of Malta.

The group has never convened since Opposition leader Adrian Delia was accused of domestic violence by his estranged wife in December.

Dr Delia has denied the allegations and refused to entertain any discussions about his ongoing separation.

A number of Nationalist MPs have privately called for his resignation but have repeatedly stopped short of making their demands public.

Dr Delia said last week he was not informed when the parliamentary group would be meeting.

Much like the parliamentary group, a meeting date for the executive committee, the party’s second-highest decision-making body, also remained elusive, PN sources said.

PN executive committee president Mark Anthony Sammut said earlier this month a meeting would inevitably discuss the allegations against Dr Delia. However, the party sources said that no date had yet been communicated by secretary general Clyde Puli.

Questions to the PN about both meetings were not answered by the time of writing. 

The party’s administrative council declared its “unconditional support” for Dr Delia earlier this month. 

Apart from the domestic violence allegations, Dr Delia is also facing questions about his personal finances and a police investigation about suspicious money laundering operations connected to a London prostitution ring years ago in which he had been involved as a lawyer. He denies any wrongdoing.

The Sunday Times of Malta reported last month Dr Delia’s alleged involvement in the London racket dated back to 2004, when a Barclays International account in Jersey held in Dr Delia’s name was reportedly used to process the payments of rents for the London properties involved in the racket.
