A potentially explosive development has emerged in the ongoing controversy surrounding the hospitals deal, with claims that original “due diligence” reports on the Vitals duo, which were previously deemed missing, have been handed over to the court. This revelation has significant implications, as the due diligence reports in question were supposed to provide critical assessments of the Vitals consortium’s suitability to manage Malta’s public hospitals.
According to Jason Azzopardi, a lawyer who has been closely following the case, the original documents are still in the possession of Malta Enterprise. Azzopardi’s claims suggest that there may have been an attempt to conceal or destroy the reports, which could have revealed crucial information about the Vitals consortium’s credentials and the legitimacy of the hospitals deal.
The handing over of the due diligence reports to the court marks a significant turning point in the ongoing investigation into the hospitals deal. The reports’ contents could potentially shed light on the circumstances surrounding the awarding of the contract to the Vitals consortium, which has been mired in controversy from the outset. As the court continues to scrutinize the evidence, it remains to be seen what the due diligence reports will reveal and what implications this may have for those involved in the deal.
