The PN’s Executive Committee that yesterday voted unanimously to reject the motion by MP Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando to expel Richard Cachia Caruana from the PN is made up of around 60 members, including the leader and deputy leader. The statute of the PN lays down that while MPs can attend, not all of them have the right to vote. Eddie Fenech Adami who attended has the automatic right to vote as a former leader.
MP Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando who presented the motion and MP Franco Debono who attended do not have the right to vote when votes are taken in the PN’ Executive Committee.

- Wed 18-Jul-2012, 14:48I do not who are the particular ones, but if you have gone to the link I provided you would have learnt that out of the 35 nationalist members of parliament, only 15 have a vote. But, besides those 15, there are other people who have a vote in the Executive Committee of the PN. These include, a representative of the sectional committees from each electoral district, (ie. another 13), and around 2 or 3 members representing MZPN, another 2 or 3 representing MNPN, representatives of local councillors etc. So the story above is wrong in that the members of the Executive Committee of the PN is not composed of only 15 but more likely around 60 or 70 people. I would have expected the reportes above to do some homework before giving a story implying the the Executive Committe is composed only of 15 members. In fact I notice that the report above has been corrected accordingly.
