Transport Minister Joe Mizzi yesterday reiterated in Parliament that jobs in the public transport sector would not be lost and that more would be needed because the envisaged network would be enlarged.
This ran counter to the continued insinuations of Opposition MP Toni Bezzina, whose PQ Mr Mizzi was answering.
The minister said that working conditions would definitely not be worse than at present.
Public transport workers’ conditions of work were regulated by the collective agreement between the management and the union representing them.
