F’digriet maħruġ mill-qorti aktar kmieni llum, il-qorti ċaħdet il-mandat ta’ inibizzjoni li pprova jagħmel il-Ministeru tal-Edukazzjoni kontra l-MUT u l-edukaturi. Il-qorti rrikonixxiet id-dritt li l-MUT tordna direttivi, liema dritt ipprova jittieħed mill-Ministeru tal-Edukazzjoni. Ħadd, inkluż il-Ministeru, mhuwa ser jagħmel sarima mal-MUT u l-edukaturi.

Wara li l-MUT u l-edukaturi ma kinux involuti fil-proċess ta’ konsultazzjoni tal-baġit, illum qed naraw ir-riżultat ta’ dan in-nuqqas.
