As Malta’s representative on the Special Committee on Agriculture (SCA), I oversaw policy and legislative developments related to the European Common Agricultural Policy.During the six-month Maltese Presidency of the Council of the EU, I chaired this high-level committee. I played a pivotal role in securing a preliminary agreement among all European institutions on the legislative file regulating European organic production.I led four trilogue meetings on this file, representing Member States in negotiations with the European Commission and European Parliament. This required intensive preparation to reconcile differing viewpoints.Additionally, I conducted press briefings ahead of the monthly Agriculture and Fisheries Ministerial meetings and drafted press releases, briefing notes, and ministerial speeches.

I launched the Information and Communications Campaign for the Proper Use and Management of Nitrates in Agriculture and Livestock Breeding, targeting 2,500 Maltese farmers and livestock breeders. With a budget of €1.3 million, I led this campaign to assist farmers in meeting the requirements of the EU Nitrates Directive. Taking over a project that had been at a standstill for months, I effectively utilised the available time and resources to realign the project and put it back on track. By managing and leading a team of six, I fostered a collaborative environment that reduced the workload and expedited project implementation.

I taught students enrolled in the Higher National Diploma programmes in Hospitality Management and Tourism. This role allowed me to design course structures, coursework, and examination papers. I facilitated class discussions to enhance students’ understanding and broaden their perspectives.
