Alex Borg has proposed a major reform of Malta’s Immigration Appeals Board, saying the system should become more independent, transparent and credible.Speaking during a Nationalist Party press event, Borg said a future PN government would introduce changes aimed at reducing the perception of political influence within the board’s decision-making process.Under the proposal, the Immigration Appeals Board would be chaired by a Magistrate, with Borg arguing that this would strengthen public trust and improve transparency in immigration-related appeals.The proposal forms part of the PN’s wider plans on migration, population management and institutional reform.Immigration policy and the handling of residence and asylum-related cases have become increasingly prominent topics in Malta’s political debate in recent months.What do you make of this proposal?•
