EU reports were persistently showing that the cost of living in Malta was among the highest, the PL said.
It said in a statement this morning that the most recent reports showed that this was 1.5 times higher than the average among EU states. The same reports showed that this was affecting mostly the most essential items.
The party said that, in the meantime, GonziPN said it wanted to investigate. It would be better for GonziPN to see what steps to take to mitigate this increase, through which Maltese and Gozitans were suffering, and which was the result of its own decisions.
Moreover, GonziPN was not compensating Maltese and Gozitan families enough and their purchasing power was constantly going down.
