Giovanna Debono

Giovanna Debono ( Attard; born November 25, 1956) was the Minister for Gozo in a number of Nationalist governments.

Early life

Debono was born in Victoria on the island of Gozo. She is the daughter of the late Coronato Attard, who was a Member of Parliament from 1965 to 1987, and Anna née Tabone. She was succeeded as Minister of Gozo by Anton Refalo after the Nationalists lost the general election of 2013.

In May 2015, Debono resigned from the Nationalist Party after her husband was accused of fraud. She retained her seat in parliament as an independent politician. She did not contest the 2017 Maltese general elections and therefore retired from Maltese politics.
