Let’s talk about the investigation into the Swiss account held by the former transport minister, Austin Gatt. It resulted in a hefty €29,000 penalty due to unpaid taxes resulting from incorrectly claimed ministerial expense allowances.
It is absolutely unacceptable that someone in a position of power and authority would engage in such deceitful and dishonest behavior. The fact that Mr. Gatt thought he could get away with claiming his full ministerial expense allowance incorrectly is not only a violation of the law but also a betrayal of the public’s trust.
