PN demands probe into Transport Malta’s use of unseaworthy boats

The Nationalist Party has called for an independent investigation into Transport Malta’s unseaworthy maritime enforcement dinghies

Five Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats delivered to TM in 2021 were declared defective by the regulator’s own surveyor.

The PN has demanded an explanation as to why the authority continued to use the boats procured for €500,000.

Independent politician Arnold Cassola first flagged the issue, and an investigation by The Shift found that the boats continued to be used.
