Nationalist MP Franco Debono maintains that these reforms are needed as they impinge upon fundamental human rights
Franco Debono's private member motion, calling on the House of Representatives to implement the necessary changes to the justice system will be discussed tomorrow.
The motion was tabled in November, preceding the Opposition motion of censure on former justice and home affairs minister Carm Mifsud Bonnici which resulted in the minister recent resignation.
Debono had cited the failure to discuss this motion in Parliament as one of the reasons why he felt let down by the government in home affairs and justice sectors.
The announcement was made tonight in Parliament by Labour whip Joe Mizzi and was confirmed by Nationalist MP Joe Falzon. The debate will commence tomorrow at 7:30pm.
This could be another indication of the government's attempts to appease the maverick MP who has consistently been a thorn in its side with his relentless criticism of the justice and home affairs sector and the Prime Minister's leadership.
Debono's vote was instrumental in approving the Opposition's motion calling for the resignation of Mifsud Bonnici, leqading to the minister's resignation two weeks ago.
His 22-point motion contains a series of points which Debono has been challenging the Prime Minister for implementation and calls on the House to take the decisions which have been pending for years.
These include the payment of overtime arrears to the police, the institution of a police union, the separation of investigative and prosecution roles within the police force, the acquisition of DNA apparatus to strengthen the police forensic laboratory and the right for suspects to consult and be assisted by a lawyer prior to and during police interrogations.

Jekk m'hu sejjer jibqa mnizzel fl-istorja ta'Malta ghal xejn, Franco Debono sejjer jitnizzel bhalha l-aktar Politiku Machiavellian li qatt kellna Malta. Gab Gvern u Priministru jaghmel li jghidlu dan id-deputat.Imma kif GonziPN l-anqas jisthu jidhru quddiem in-nies.Konna ghadhna u nibqghu nghixu f'Pajjiz tal-Mickey Mouse fejn Franco jigbed l-ispaga u GonziPN jimmarcja.

This Dr. Debono is infatuated to show himself as being dominant and yet nothing materializes, he votes with Government in a confidence motion and yet all the clique and oligarchy is still there. What a palaver and nut case he is thinking that GonziPn would ever try to get rid of any of his dear friends.
If he still thinks he is going to change anything especially a clique that is obsessed with power, he is totally insane.

Does the Justice motion contain how injustices performed by the Justice Administration are going to be reversed?
And who is going to be held responsible for the ongoing discrimination?
Lets ACT and stop preaching. Justice delay is justice denied.

Oh no not him again

Honestly speaking, ''Who the hell cares'' what Franco wants to discuss! Hope that CMB votes against all motions presented by Franco
