A €100 million termination clause in a deal to privatise three state hospitals was included as a way to guarantee a bank’s loan without violating EU
Joseph Muscat has insisted that an agreement penned with a group of investors for the transfer of public hospitals was different from the eventual deal that saw three public hospitals being transferred to VGH.
The former prime minister defended his government s decision to rope in VGH to run the Gozo General Hospital, St Luke s and Karin Grech Rehabilitation Centre when he was called in to testify in a court case initiated by former Opposition leader Adrian Delia.
Muscat said a Memorandum of Understanding signed between Malta Enterprise and a group of private investors towards the end of 2014 on a hospitals concession did not fall within the scope of the public health service s needs. The MoU was terminated at the start of 2015 and government issued an international request for proposals. However, the same investors were eventually awarded the tender.
