Minister for Home Affairs, National Security and Law Enforcement Byron Camilleri visited members of the disciplined forces on Christmas morning to thank them for their work, particularly over the Festive season in Malta and Gozo.

Minister Byron Camilleri thanked them on behalf of the Maltese and Gozitan people.

He called at Paola Police Station and the operations centre of the Armed Forces of Malta in Luqa, where important work is coordinated not only on land, but also surveillance at sea and in the air.

At the Kordin Correctional Facility and at the fire station in the same area, the Minister also spoke to the staff of the Agency for Correctional Services and Civil Protection.

“I am proud of all these workers. In the last twelve months I have seen a great will to make changes that will result in a better service to the Maltese and Gozitan people. We are not perfect and perhaps never will be, but we are making the greatest possible effort and the greatest investment in our history to best protect society,” said Minister Camilleri at the end of these visits.

Minister Camilleri mentioned how like those he visited this morning, there are thousands of other workers in different sectors, including those of the detention services and the AWAS, who also do not have holidays during this season.

“The circumstances of this year, in the midst of a pandemic, may have made us better appreciate the need to do everything in order to safeguard our jobs. The Maltese and Gozitan workers have given the best proof of this and that is why our country has remained resilient and strong, “concluded Minister Camilleri.
