The MUMN is appealing to the Government and all those involved, “to stabilise the situation as urgently as possible.
In a statement, the MUMN said that “in the current situation the health sector will surely be negatively affected, and this is not acceptable for the MUMN.”
The Union argued that, “it is not just a matter of requesting the resignation of the Prime Minister, or if the Prime Minister is to be replaced on the 12th January, but what really matters is that the “normality” is restored as quickly as possible for the sake of the patients in all hospitals and the whole service of the Health Sector.”
It stressed that recruitment and manpower planning are surely being compromised with such uncertainties in the present administration.
The MUMN said that it feels that the politicians to be chosen to lead the country must be above of any suspicion in any current investigations that are taking place.
“This country cannot afford to have its leaders in Government with dark shadows over their head.” The Union said that “the VGH deal is a typical example where two ministers and an ex-minister are being investigated.”
“The damage has already been done, but what the MUMN is stressing is a quick recovery to normality” it said.
This “normality” can be achieved by showing to the EU and to the Maltese people that all the institutions are working and safeguarding the countries/people’s interest, said the Union.
It concluded by saying that “the longer this recovery will take to start, the longer the suffering and the instability of the Maltese people is to prevail.”
