The Labour Party has appointed MP Luciano Busuttil as its main representative on MEUSAC, the Malta-EU Steering and Action Committee, to take up the vacant post after George Abela resigned upon being nominated for the office of President.
The PL also said that Joe Mifsud, who had already served in MEUSAC, has been appointed substitute member.
Sister newspaper Illum revealed on Sunday that Mifsud was one of the main possible people to be chosen by leader Joseph Muscat for the MEUSAC job.
Two other contenders for this post were Wenzu Mintoff and columnist Anthony Licari. Licari, formerly a contributor to the Nationalist organ il-mument and recently turned pro-Labour pundit, has told MaltaToday that his wish to be appointed MEUSAC representative or the PL “was backed by numerous senior party officials and MPs… I am happy for the person chosen.”
