The Malta Independent reports that a comprehensive plan for Cottonera has been approved by Cabinet, designed to ‘improve the beauty and culture’ of the area. Culture Minister Owen Bonnici said the project would not lead to the gentrification of Cottonera.
The Malta Independent also carries a statement by BirdLife Malta which accuses the government of deliberately changing the spring season dates to appease the hunting lobby. The NGO says that the chosen period coincided with the migration times of the red-listed turtledove.
