Speaking on an episode of Popolin, Opposition Leader Bernard Grech said that Malta’s population increased by 90,000 foreign workers after he had, around 4 years ago, proposed a national discussion on population and immigration.
The Nationalist Party leader said that he had suggested to Prime Minister Robert Abela that a national discussion take place on the issue, but it was turned down.

He said that it would have entailed taking on the advice of experts, the holding of a conference and various other methods to address the issue of a growing population.
He said that despite approaching the Prime Minister with the positive attitude, the proposal was still turned down. This, said Grech, shows that the Prime Minister does not want to listen to suggestions.
