The Malta Environment and Planning Authority (MEPA) last month determined slightly more development applications than the number it received.
The Authority said it decided 543 applications and received 533 new applications. The net pending caseload at the end of the month was 4,894.
During June the Authority processed 127 notifications of development, which do not require a formal application.
During the same month, 88 Stop and Enforcement notices were issued, 63 in Malta and 25 in Gozo; 38 enforcement cases were closed, 23 in Malta and 15 in Gozo. 27 enforcement cases were sanctioned by the issue of a sanctionable permit. Another 10 cases were resolved since owners decided to remove illegal development and comply with enforcement notice.
During the same month 1 case was withdrawn by MEPA.
