The building industry was under the spotlight in Tuesday’s edition of TV programme Times Talk, three days after a protest against the introduction of new planning regulations, which environmentalists say will lead to more over-development.

NGOs claim changing policies threaten to bring widespread destruction of the countryside and reduce open spaces but the government insists it is beefing up enforcement.

Viewers are invited to send their comments on timesofmalta.com and on the Facebook and Twitter pages of Times Talk.

Presented by Times of Malta’s head of media Herman Grech and chief reporter Mark Micallef, Times Talk is live on TVM at 6.55pm with a repeat on TVM 2 at 10.15pm. The programme is also streamed live on timesofmalta.com.
