Parliament’s select committee on social affairs is launching a consultation exercise about the importance of the father’s role in the upbringing of children. This follows a discussion on a document about the father’s responsibilities, both where the two parents are together, as well as where the parents are separated.

The document may be viewed on parliament’s website http://www.parliament.gov.mt/socialaffairscommittee.

Written submissions may be made to committee president Edwin Vassallo up to 26 February, by email to [email protected], or by normal mail addressed to the committee president, House of Representatives, Valletta.
