As June exams draw closer for law students, tensions naturally start to rise. I fully understand; I was once in your shoes, studying law at a time when we didn’t have the wealth of resources available today. Unlike my time, now you don’t need to physically go to the library—there is a vast digital library right at your fingertips, enriched by deep online resources and advanced AI tools [albeit  I continue to express caution regarding AI-generated content since accuracy always needs verification] 

Another innovative learning resource, unavailable during my own studies, is the excellent initiative by GHSL on Spotify. Recently, I had the pleasure of delivering a revision lecture specifically on Administrative Law. Those second year law students preparing for the upcoming June administrative law exams may find it particularly useful.

In the lecture, I begin by outlining the four primary categories of administrative action (or inaction):

  1. Administrative acts,
  2. Acts of tort,
  3. Contractual failures,
  4. Legislative acts.

I provide clear explanations on how to challenge each type of action and the procedural routes available. Crucially, I cover essential points comprehensively yet succinctly, deliberately delivering the session in Maltese. This decision was purposeful, given that Maltese jurisprudence from our courts remains predominantly in Maltese.

My thanks go to GHSL, especially third year law student Sean Azzopardi (in photo) for organizing this valuable initiative and to Ganado Advocates for their support.
