The regeneration work covered 17 blocks within the Fgura social housing complex, benefiting 102 families.

Minister Galdes highlighted that the government is committed to investing in regeneration projects within community hubs to ensure that residents of social housing enjoy a cleaner and higher-quality living environment.

“This investment not only preserves government assets in the best possible way, allowing more beneficiaries to benefit, but also improves the quality of life for all residents in these areas,” the Minister stated.

He further emphasised that the Housing Authority is undertaking similar regeneration efforts across several localities in the country, “to ensure that a significant number of families can now enjoy a renewed environment that not only offers a fresh look but also positively impacts the daily lives of our residents.”

Sep 17 2024 Share

Glenn Micallef, Malta’s nominee for the European Commission, has been appointed Commissioner for Intergenerational Fairness, Youth, Culture, and Sport by Ursula von der Leyen.

At 35, Micallef is the youngest member of the proposed 27-member college and will focus on increasing youth involvement in EU policymaking.

Prime Minister Robert Abela quickly congratulated Micallef, calling it a “proud moment for Malta” as he takes on a role that significantly impacts youth, culture, and sports in Europe.

Culture Minister Owen Bonnici also expressed enthusiasm for future collaboration with Micallef.

Although considered one of the smaller portfolios, the role carries substantial responsibility, with a budget exceeding €13 billion, encompassing key EU initiatives like Erasmus+, the European Solidarity Corps, and Creative Europe.

Von der Leyen previously announced her intention to create a commissioner role centred on intergenerational fairness, stressing the importance of ensuring today’s decisions benefit future generations and foster solidarity across age groups. Micallef expressed his honour at being given the portfolio, describing it as deeply relevant to the daily lives of EU citizens.

Von der Leyen emphasised the importance of intergenerational fairness, entrusting Micallef with overseeing this vital issue.

Micallef’s appointment concludes weeks of negotiations, during which the EU Commission encouraged governments to nominate more women to ensure gender balance.

Malta, however, maintained its support for Micallef, who replaced the original nominee, Chris Fearne, after he withdrew due to legal issues. Micallef, an expert in EU policy, previously served as Chief of Staff to Prime Minister Abela.

In response to questions about pressure on member states to alter their nominations, von der Leyen dismissed such claims, stating that many countries had unrealistic expectations for their nominees to receive top economic portfolios.
