I fully support and encourage MP Charles Buhagiar and MP Helena Dalli's agreement with Mr Buhagiar for a call for a national effort to look into the ever spiralling property prices which have now reached absurd and inordinate levels.

Indeed the steep price inflation is causing serious hardship for many people particularly younger people. It also exerts excessive pressures on newly married couples and families.

Measures to control the rise in property prices must and should definitely be put into practice. Meanwhile the party in government could emulate the example of Spain to help first-time buyers by offering incentives, such as tax incentives and aid to those who cannot manage their loan payments.
