The Chairman, Joseph Bugeja welcomed members and expressed gratitude for their attendance. Dr. Daniel Attard, a Member of the European Parliament and part of the TRAN Committee, was the guest speaker via TEAMS. He provided insights into transport sector challenges unique to island regions like Malta, encouraging the TRAN Committee to address these concerns, and announced a future visit by the TRAN Committee of the EU in May this year.
Mr Bugeja reviewed key matters from 2024, including nine Board meetings and weekly Executive Board meetings. Highlights included increased membership, signed cooperation agreements with business entities and government agencies, and a resolved issue regarding driving licenses and residence permits, for which IDENTITÀ and JOBSPLUS were formally acknowledged. Parking issues emerged as a significant concern, prompting the Chairman to file a claim with the Ombudsman. A meeting involving relevant stakeholders was scheduled for April 3, 2025, to address these fines.
Lastly, Treasurer Tonio Farrugia presented the 2024 audited financial report, which, along with the AGM report, received unanimous approval from members representing a quorum.
Tony Mifsud, the Secretary General concluded the AGM meeting.
