Roderick Galdes’ case is an interesting one and is worth delving into in detail. One can easily compare his declaration of assets in a simple and similar manner we did with Robert Abela’s.
This is the declaration of assets of Roderick Galdes in his first year as a Labour government junior minister.
Residence in Qormi.
Office and tenement in Luqa

This is his declaration of assets for 2022.

Therefore, in the nine years that Roderick Galdes was a government minister, he declared that he accumulated in total 3 properties, being a land in Qormi, a house in Siġġiewi and a house in Sicily. His bank deposits increased by at around €50,000 and his debt increased by around €73,000.
However, he FIAU’s report lists potentially more properties and assets than these that are declared apart from two specific companies one in Malta and another in Italy that may be connected to Roderick Galdes but are listed under different owners. Eyewitnesses also say that Roderick Galdes frequents another property in Sicily apart from the property which he declared.
