The Labour Party said today it had a 'comprehensive plan' for the IT sector, although no details were given.
IT spokesman Michael Farrugia in a press conference said the government had not kept its pre-election promise to create 5,600 jobs at SmartCity over five years.
That, he said, had been a promise meant to deceive the people and 'steal' their vote.
He noted that SmartCity officials recently confirmed to the PL that they were no commitments or time-frames of the kind mentioned by the government.
He noted that the governemnt had not even completed the road between the airport and SmartCity.
Dr Farrugia said Labour had a comprehensive plan for the IT sector, which included collaboration with SmartCity and companies which wished to come to Malta, a reduction of red tape, and a reduction of the utility tariffs. The government would also help famlies who had no access to IT and it would promote investment in research.
