| Abstract: | This symposium could not have come at a more appropriate time than today. Indeed, this last year has been a very productive one for the evolution of family legislation and its interpretation through case law in Malta. Less than two months ago, on 28 May 2011, the House of Representatives consulted the electorate on a Private Members’ Bill intended to introduce divorce legislation in Malta, with the referendum producing a 53% support for such law. Consequently, a Bill to amend the Civil Code in order to introduce divorce in Malta was published in The Malta Government Gazette on 17 June 2011 and the third reading on the Bill is expected to take place on 25 July 2011. |
