MHRA welcomes success of litter lout crackdown

The Malta Hotels and Restaurants Association yesterday expressed its satisfaction at the success of a joint 10-day pilot project carried out between the police, the Malta Environment and Planning Authority and local wardens to crack down on littering and dumping.

The association said it strongly believes the country's main asset is its "product" and any action to put Malta's house in order is welcome both for its own sake and those who visit the island.

Calling the project a breath of fresh air, MHRA president Kevin De Cesare said: "The government must support and take every opportunity to invest heavily in this area to ensure cleanliness, reduce noise pollution and upgrade the product.

"It is important that a campaign similar to the one that ran a few years ago on the media is repeated to encourage the public to keep Malta clean. Schools should also adopt awareness about this problem to instill in the very young the need to keep our islands clean."
