Another 23 million to add to our debt after enemalta and schools debts. I wonder where the next hidden legacy we inherited from the PN of government departments and public entities owing money will surface. Will it be retirement homes, the works dept, MITA, the university, or some other institutions who have not yet paid for services rendered. My guess is as good as yours although each revelation must add to the headache of the Minister of Finance. Finanzi fis sod indeed it looks more like Dejn f'kull kantuniera.
