For some unknown reason the fishing department decided to close down the winch room at St George’s Bay, Birżebbuġa.

For the benefit of readers, this room has an electrical winch provided by local authorities to be used by all boat owners when they put their boat in the water or pull it out. Nearly every bay has a winch room. I do not know if other winch rooms are still operating.

This is a sport like all the others, where local authorities provide the required facilities.

We are giving our financial contribution by paying our boat licences. Could the department take note and restore this facility?
