Wied il-Ghasel works should stop until appeal is decided

Abstract

Works at Wied ii-Ghasel should be stopped while an appeal was being considered, environmentalist and MEP candidate Alan Deidun said. "The decision to allow works to proceed despite the appeal having been postponed and is still to be heard instills a lack of confidence in Joe Citizen about the planning process," he said. Mr Deidun said in a statement that a lot had been mooted about the pending reform at the Malta Environment and Planning Authority which was at cabinet stage.
