Lawyers for Adrian Delia and the Attorney General argued in court on Tuesday on the admissibility of a list of 23 witnesses whom the Nationalist leader would like to testify on the secret company Egrant.
Dr Delia has been requesting the court to order the AG to hand him a full copy of the Egrant inquiry report.
Attorney General Peter Grech is arguing that the witnesses indicated by Dr Delia are “irrelevant” to the issue before the court.
Lawyer Vincent Galea, representing Dr Delia, said the court itself should be handed a copy of the report in confidence so that it could better decide on the relevance of his list of witnesses.
Among the witnesses called by Dr Delia are the Attorney General himself and the chairman of the FIAU.
Dr Galea asked why the Attorney General had allowed other inquiry reports to be published in full, but not this one. He mentioned as examples the inquiries conducted into the (Paceville nightclub) PlusOne and Paqpaqli cases.
