On Wednesday, MaltaToday reported that Bernard Grech wanted Standards Commissioner George Hyzler to be the next Ombudsman.
Hyzler’s name was put forward by Grech during informal talks with Robert Abela, sources close to the two leaders said. The Opposition’s proposal was not well-received by the government.
On Thursday, Grech said that Hyzler’s name was mentioned in passing during the discussions, because he was under the impression that his term would run-out next October. “He was not my first preference, I didn’t even discuss the topic with him [George Hyzler].”

Politics should be free from greedy individuals damaging the countryâs reputation, Opposition Leader Bernard Grech said in his Easter message, insisting on the need of a new political vision for the country.
The way forward for the economy is by striking a balance between the environment and economic needs, he added, recalling that, on East Sunday, Maltaâs squares used to be full of families, young people, children, and the elderly. But, this time, celebrations were restricted due to the COVID-19 measures put in place by the public health authorities.
We need to look at the future, to see children meeting again in schools, workers returning to their workplace and families reuniting with members who are vulnerable, Dr Grech said.
