The land where the Labour Party is proposing to put two gas storage tanks at Delimara should not pose a problem, according to a former Enemalta chairman.
Architect Joe Ellul Vincenti said tonight that as long as the tanks were built correctly, the land in question was not problematic and other areas of the Delimara power station were also built on reclaimed land.
Mr Ellul Vincenti was appointed Enemalta chairman in the early 1990s by a Nationalist administration.
He made the statement in Ta' Giorni where Labour leader Joseph Muscat was being interviewed by Simone Cini and Robert Musumeci.
Finance Minister Tonio Fenech had raised doubts about the site identified in Labour's plans for the two large storage tanks. Similar doubts were raised by former Enemalta chairman Robert Ghirlando.
