The Malta Union of Teachers said this evening it was lifting directives it had issued to lecturers at Mcast “as a sign of good will and in consideration of students’ concerns”.

The lecturers had been directed to only deliver lectures, amid ongoing talks on a new collective agreement. Students had complained of being held “hostage” in the dispute, which has been dragging for months.

The MUT and Mcast officials held meetings yesterday and today.

The MUT said further discussions and consultations were required.
