Will the newly appointed Project Green Executive Chairman, Joseph Cuschieri be using taxpayer money to fork out donations to the Marigold Foundation, just like he did when he headed the Malta Financial Services Authority and the Malta Gaming Authority? Apparently, Joseph Cuschieri’s lawyer, is Charlon Gouder, with whom he has a good working relationship, according to official government correspondence.
