He emphasised the importance of the Petitions Committee, saying it can play a crucial role in addressing deadlocks to EU rights due to poor implementation in member states.
MEP Thomas Bajada will be focusing on the Committee on Fisheries, the Committee on Environment, Public Health and Food Safety, and the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs.
Alex Agius Saliba will be part of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, and the Committee on Internal Market and Consumer Protection.
David Casa will be continuing his work on the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs, and the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs.
Daniel Attard has joined the Committee on Transport and Tourism, the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy, and the Committee on Regional Development.
