A new multi-purpose hub business centre was given planning permission by the Planning Board today.

The business centre will replace the ex-Malta Dairy Milk processing plant in the industrial estate of Xewkija.

While the old processing plant will be demolished, the administrative block of the old plant which is a protected Modernist building, will be restored and used to house offices, conference rooms and ancillary facilities.
