Prime Minister Answers MCESD Meeting Call Over Power Cuts
Local
After the Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry called for an urgent MCESD meeting due to the power cuts hitting various Maltese localities, prime minister Robert Abela took to Twitter to state:
“I asked MCESD Chairman to convene a meeting of the social partners. The Government will be updating MCESD on the present climate challenges, energy and the ongoing and upcoming works to strengthen the electricity distribution system.”
This comes as various Maltese homes enter the second week of extended power cuts, leading to a social media backlash as well as planned protests, with the Opposition urging the government to declare a national emergency.
