Editorial [Id-Dritt, 12, Autumn 1984]

Abstract

In the legal world, comments on the activities and performance of the legislator and the judge provide much of the staple diet of columnists and readers alike. It is our undoubted duty to voice our concern over laws, judicial decisions and events which may serve to undermine the Rule of Law in Malta as well as abroad. As we go to press however, it becomes apparent that lack of space prevents us from here dwelling at length on the implications of the events of the past few months and that a proper discussion of the present predicament of the Rule of Law in Malta must be reserved to a future edition of our journal.
