Labour commits to complete Mcast campus

The Labour Party is committed to complete the new campus of the Malta College of Arts, Sciences and Technology once it is returned to power.

Speaking during a visit to the college in Paola, Labour leader Joseph Muscat said there was consensus in the country on the project, which was expected to unite all the institutes for greater synergy.

The project, he said, was an ambitious one and Labour, which believed in Mcast students, would invest to bring more stability in the students’ life. He said a future Labour Administration would ensure the project got going in the shortest time possible.

He said 36 per cent of students did not continue their studies after completing their compulsory schooling and an effort had to be made to lower this percentage.
