Its existence was indicative of a lacuna, one which academics would not fill. It took a group of law students, balancing their studies and other commitments, to organise such a publication.

It gives me great pleasure and delight because, conscious of the jingoism of the new Committee, I feel that with this new and third volume the Society has embarked upon a new era and the Journal is privileged with the light of a new day. I am not unconscious of course, of the great responsibility of the Society, nor indeed am I unaware of its difficulties in achieving its solemn aim; and it is for this reason, if indeed for no other that I ask for the assistance and co-operation of each member. To say that unanimity of purpose will inevitably result in strength is perhaps to accentuate the position. To assert that team work and co-operation must result in success is a truism.

It may, in fact, be stated with some certainty that no reference to procurators as "legal" is to be found in the Code de Rohan or Diritto Municipale di Malta which was promulgated in 1784, and, as closely as it seems possible to ascertain, the earliest evidence of legislative recognition of this professional title is to be found in Proclamation No. XII of October 15, 1827.
