The Ombudsman is investigating the advertising contract Air Malta awarded to BRND WGN.
The Ombudsman Joseph Said Pullicino has been asked to investigate the contract awarded by Air Malta to advertising agency BRND WGN.
Another agency, TBWA has asked the Ombudsman to investigate the tender process which they claim lacked transparency.
BRND WGN was engaged to organize the airline's advertising campaign in Europe, North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean region.
TBWA is also claiming that Air Malta carried out drastic changes in the original terms of the tender process. These changes are listed in a six-page document submitted by TBWA's CEO Bertrand Attard.
