When divorce is available to all but difficult to get

Divorce has existed in the Maltese legislation for many years and it is only available to couples who, by changing their temporary residence to another country, file divorce in their new country of residence.
Such divorce is recognised by Maltese law. This means the divorce procedure is only available to couples who are able to afford it and who have a mutual agreement to divorce. All other couples who are already separated live in a legal limbo as no law regulates their situation. The introduction of the Bill by Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando and Evarist Bartolo creates that legal framework. The role of the parliamentarian is to legislate and to ensure the rights of a minority are preserved.
Divorce already exists, it just needs to be made available to the ones who cannot afford to seek it through a foreign residence.
