Persons who are interested in joining the Civil Protection Department (CPD) as a volunteer are to fill in this form.

Once the application is received by the CPD, applicants will be called for an interview, and if the candititate is successful, they will be listed as an apprentice volunteer. Only after the applicant passes all courses/training provided by the CPD will they take on the position of a volunteer. Candidates will then be posted in different sections which pertain to the CPD.

Through this form, private companies and Government departments/entities can request Civil Protection Department (CPD) staff to visit their premises so that CPD can familiarise themselves with the building, location and other materials kept or produced in the premises.

This declaration form, provides you, as the owner of a vehicle (or as a delegate on the said vehicle), with the ability to assign a particular vehicle not used by yourself to a third party, hereby being referred to as the 'Appointed Driver'. This functionality is particularly useful in instances whereby a vehicle is always being driven by a particular driver (not being the vehicle owner) and towards persons having more than one vehicle licenced on their name.

This form needs to be submitted via les.gov.mt and requires that you first input the details of the Appointed Driver and upload the driver’s Driving Licence. Following submission, the particular vehicle would need to be linked to the Appointed Driver and this form uploaded accordingly.

Once the process is completed, with effect from that date, contraventions issued on that particular vehicle will automatically be issued in the name of the appointed driver indicated as the actual driver on condition that full details are given and relative documents are attached.

This process will only be applied to contraventions where penalty points are applicable and where the driver of the vehicle could not be identified, such as contraventions issued via Speed Cameras and CCTVs, and thus in such cases the Penalty Points Declaration form would not be required.

For any other contraventions where penalty points are applicable; or contraventions issued via Speed Cameras and CCTVs prior to the form processing date, they will need to be assigned to the driver by means of the Penalty Points Declaration Form.

False declarations constitute a criminal offence and will be liable to prosecution.

This Penalty Points declaration form provides you, as the owner of a Vehicle, with the ability to assign the contravention to the person who was driving the vehicle at the date, time and place of the said contravention. The contravention will be re-issued in the name of the driver instead of the owner only if the full details are provided and declaration is signed by both parties involved.

If the declaration is not signed by the driver, the contravention will still remain on the owner of the vehicle, however, the person indicated as the driver of the said vehicle will receive a summons to appear in front of the Tribunal as a witness. For this purpose, please ensure that the full details of the driver are provided in the declaration form.

False declarations constiture a criminal offence and will be liable to prosecution.
