Over the past 23 years, Grech Fiorini served as director, assistant registrar, deputy registrar, principal and clerk within the Law Courts.
Between 2014 and 2018 she served as an assistant registrar before being promoted as a director registrar from 2018 onwards.

Nationalist Party leader Bernard Grech on Wednesday called on the government to withdraw the bill amending the Interpretation Act, saying the proposed amendment will take away the fundamental rights of the Maltese and Gozitans.
“The Nationalist Party will continue working to ensure that the rights of the Maltese and Gozitans are protected. We will not stand for such an amendment and call for the Bill to be scrapped immediately.”
Grech was speaking in Parliament during the debate on the Bill to amend the Interpretation Act.
The Nationalist Party called for the bill to be dropped after it was criticised by the Chamber of Advocates, constitutional experts, the dean of the Faculty of Law, former European Human Rights Court judge Giovanni Bonello, former attorney general and European Court judge Anthony Borg Barthet and former commissioner for laws and MP Franco Debono.
Imagine Moses climbing to the very top of the obscene Tumas-Gasan towers at Mrieħel. His task is to revisit the 10 commandments. Instead of stone tablets, he uses an electronic tablet to write on.
Given the secularisation of this cosmopolitan nation, Moses, instead of getting orders from a heavily bearded Lord dictating the Decalogue, tries to get inspiration from different sectors of the Maltese population.
What conflicting messages would he be bombarded with?
What follows is based on notes taken during the consultation process indulged in by Moses.
‘Thou shalt not criticise government’
This was the heartfelt desire of the Commissioner for NGOs. He has already decreed that if Repubblika dares to keep on criticising our benevolent government, they would be banished from the Garden of Eden (aka Register of NGOs). Criticism is a forbidden fruit and those who taste it do so at their own peril, was the North Korea style of reasoning.

A new asset retaining facility forming the Asset Recovery Bureau (ARB) will be set up in Malta through a €2.5 million government investment, to help preserve high-value assets seized by law enforcement.
ARB CEO Kenneth John Camilleri said that the bureau receives several high-value assets, and in turn, the bureau requires the special facilities and expertise needed to maintain them.
To facilitate this, the premises will house cars, jewellery, boats, and other assets recovered by the court during criminal proceedings for proper conservation.
