Statement by the Church Environment Commission on World Town Planning Day

  • On the occasion of World Town Planning Day (8th November 2017) the Church Environment Commission (KA) reflects on the current state of development planning in the country and is concerned, as it has been for the last years, about the direction that planning in Malta has taken.
