Trasparenza finanzjarjaPartial

MPs' declaration (Sch.1): submitted annually to Speaker since elected in 2022; most recent: 2025. No ministerial form — never been a minister. During 2017 PN leadership race, voluntarily published a limited assurance engagement (Mazars): net worth €1.6m, property €2.25m, bank loans €829,510 — this is a private audit, not a parliamentary declaration (MaltaToday, Sep 2017)
