Auxiliary Bishop Charles J. Scicluna said today that the guidelines to ethics for volunteers and voluntary organisations of the Maltese Diocese give a taste of responsibility, highlighting that it is vital transparency and accountability are brought into the picture since if not, ethics are useless.
Speaking during the presentation of the code of ethics for volunteers and voluntary organisations which operate within the Malta Archdiocese, Mgr Scicluna said that “it does not mean that giving a service voluntarily does not bring about obligations”.
The presentation was held at the Archbishop’s seminary at Tal-Virtu, Rabat in the presence of around 100 individuals involved in the voluntary sector.
