These are the main stories featured in Saturday's newspapers:
Times of Malta reports President George Vella calling for greater
respect for construction workers and those who work in harsh conditions, saying some were working in “pitiful” situations. It also reports the government plans
to effectively double the area of the Ta’ Qali National Park, with an additional 200,000 square metres of land turned into open spaces.
L-orizzont also reports the proposal to create Malta's biggest open space at Ta' Qali. Amid the Tripoli unrest, the newspaper also reports that Palm City will remain open.
The Malta Independent says balloon releases and plastic confetti during public events will be banned as part of a new environmental strategy.
In-Nazzjon reports the initiative for a European master plan to fight cancer. Another story says the majority of Labour MEP candidates were concealing the fact that they backed the European Socialists pro-abortion manifesto.
