| Abstract: | The Constitution of Malta does not provide for recalling by the electorate of a member of Parliament once elected to the House of Representatives. This means that once an MP makes it to the House it is extremely difficult for the electorate to have him/her removed from office. There might be various reasons why the electorate might want to recall an MP. One such reason is that, through his/her voting behaviour in the House, s/he might end up no longer representing the views of the electorate. |
