The Chamber of Advocates, as the representative of the legal profession in Malta, would like to congratulate Mr Justice Mark Chetcuti on his appointment as the new Chief Justice.
The Chamber welcomes the appointment of Mr Justice Chetcuti and recognises that this is a historical moment in the history of Maltese judicial appointments in that, for the first time, the choice of the Chief Justice was made following consensus by both sides of the house.
His 10 years of experience in the Judiciary will be invaluable for his new appointment and we are hopeful that the wisdom, knowledge, and experience the Chief Justice has gained as a member of the judiciary will serve him well as he works to ensure that the Judiciary fulfils its mandate to administer justice in our country, without fear or favour.
The Chamber would like to take this opportunity to thank outgoing Chief Justice Joseph Azzopardi for his service and for always being available to collaborate with the Chamber, in the best interest of justice.
