The Labour Party’s casual elections have determined the six women who will be elected to Parliament through Malta’s Gender Corrective Mechanism.The women selected are Cressida Galea, Fleur Abela, Francesca Zarb, Yana Borg Debono Grech, Deborah Schembri and Romilda Zarb.Their election follows the casual election process, which had already seen four women secure seats for Labour, paving the way for additional appointments through the mechanism designed to improve gender balance in Parliament.For three of the six women, the appointment marks a return to the House of Representatives.Cressida Galea and Romilda Zarb both served as MPs during the previous legislature, while Deborah Schembri is set for a political comeback after previously serving as a minister in the Joseph Muscat administration.Meanwhile, Fleur Abela, Francesca Zarb and Yana Borg Debono Grech will be entering Parliament for the first time.Their arrival continues a broader generational shift within Labour’s parliamentary group, with several fresh faces now set to take their place in the country’s highest political institution.Fleur Abela’s election also makes history, with the Labour politician becoming the first openly LGBTIQ+ woman to sit in Malta’s Parliament.The Gender Corrective Mechanism was introduced to address the longstanding underrepresentation of women in Maltese politics, allowing for additional seats to be allocated when necessary to improve gender balance following a general election.What do you make of the newly appointed MP’s?•
