Ta' Cenc - the heat is on

Abstract

THE Gozitan version of omertà could explain the somewhat subdued response from Gozo to the Ta' Cenc proposals so far. I say 'so far' factor, since, late on Wednesday (at the time of writing), all omertà will be swept under the carpet as the Sannat Residents Association hold their much-awaited public consultation exercise. Not that the association did not find any obstacles to hold the meeting - for example, shortly before the meeting (due to be held at Sannat primary school), the association was first informed that it had to apply formally (in writing) for permission to use the school premises; once the association wrote, it was informed by the Education Division that it was not possible to have such a meeting with political representatives in a public school - it was eventually held elsewhere.
