The following are the main stories in Friday’s newspapers.

Times of Malta says no one was hurt when an apartment block in Gwardamanġa collapsed on Wednesday night moments after the residents fled when they noticed large cracks forming in the walls. In another story, the newspaper says President George Vella urged the government to implement “as soon as possible” the Venice Commission’s recommendations on the appointment of the judiciary to ensure their independence.

The Malta Independent says that all four families affected by Gwardamanġa’s building collapse have been given alternative accommodation by the contractor from the adjacent site.

In-Nazzjon quotes the Nationalist Party’s health spokesman Stephen Spiteri saying that the government had money for corruption but not for the most vulnerable.

L-Orizzont says that a centre of wellbeing has been inaugurated within Mcast.
