Gonzi promises better Mepa law enforcement

The government is planning to change Mepa enforcement procedures so that illegal buildings would be demolished immediately, Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi said during a PN activity in Msida this evening.

Dr Gonzi said that now that the country’s finances were on the right track, the government could concentrate all its efforts on achieving sustainable development.

“We will work on changing the red tape mentality to a red carpet mentality. Enforcement will be increased so as to ensure that everyone respects and obeys the law,” he said.

The Prime Minister, who was being interviewed by TV presenter Eileen Montesin, spoke about the health sector and promised that all health services would remain free of charge.
