I would like to ask both major political parties and the Malta Maritime Authority whether more berthing space is to be created at St George's Bay in Birżebbuġa.

While we pay taxes on fishing and fees for other related permits every year, can we expect to be told when a there will be a berthing plan for the bay?

Hundreds of seacraft owners do not have a berthing space allocated to them. This means that their boats do not have adequate shelter in rough weather, so that they often risk being damaged.

Besides, CMA-CGM Malta is to expand towards the land area, which means that a number of existing berths will be removed. This would mean that boat-owners would have no alternative berths.
