[Address]

Dear Dr Ing Patrick Attard

Reference is being made to your letter dated 9th February 2009; regarding the Book "The Catholic Church and Homosexuality".

Following your letter, the Police checked with the Media Centre about this book and it was established that no more copies are in circulation of the mentioned book since they only had two copies.

Furthermore the Police cannot take any criminal action against those persons who simply put this book on the bookshelves.

Kind regards

Yours Sincerely

[Signed]

Dr Dominic Micallef BA LLD
Police Superintendent

[P. Attard's Note: I would like to thank the Maltese Police for their work. I would also like to take the opportunity to encourage our law-makers to make incitement of hatred against gays and transgendered (Homophobia and Transphobia) a punishable act.]
