# Nationalist Party Postpones General Council Meeting

## In brief

- The Nationalist Party (PN) has postponed its General Council meeting.
- The decision was made due to the Maltese Parliament reconvening on Saturday.
- The council was originally scheduled to take place on June 24th.

The Nationalist Party (PN) has announced the postponement of its General Council meeting. The decision was made because the Maltese Parliament is set to reconvene on Saturday.

The General Council was initially scheduled to be held on June 24th. However, the need for Members of Parliament to attend parliamentary duties on Saturday necessitated the change in plans for the party.

Both MaltaToday and The Malta Independent reported on the postponement, noting the reason for the change.

The Nationalist Party (PN) General Council, which was originally scheduled for Saturday, 20 June, has been postponed. The decision was made because Prime Minister Robert Abela announced that Parliament would open on the same morning.

A PN spokesperson confirmed the postponement to Newsbook, stating that new dates are expected to be announced soon. Earlier, Fil-Qosor reported on [the Nationalist Party postponing its General Council Meeting](/article/2026-06-16/nationalist-party-postpones-general-council-meeting).
