Ambassador of Greece calls on Madam Speaker

His Excellency Mr Alexandros Sandis paid a courtesy visit on Madam Speaker, Notary Myriam Spiteri Debono, at the House of Representatives in Valletta, today, Friday, 27 February 1998. Mr Sandis is the new Ambassador of the Hellenic Republic to Malta.

Madam Speaker and Ambassador Sandis talked about the responsibilities of the Speaker's role in Malta's Parliament, the usefulness of Parliamentary Committees and on the need of creating better links between the Parliaments of the two countries. It was agreed that this is particularly essential in view of the on-going Euro-Med process, which both Malta and Greece have an interest in furthering owing to their common geographical position.

During his call on Madam Speaker, His Excellency Mr Sandis was accompanied by the Second Counsellor of the Embassy, Mr Dimitrios Touloupas.
