Even Malta Enterprise is playing electoral gamesIn view of the Government announcement that it has once more resurrected its car racing track electoral proposal, Carmel Cacopardo Chairperson of ADPD – The Green Party and Dr Melissa Bagley, Deputy Secretary General and candidate on the 5th Electoral District have issued this statement:The land on which the racing track proposal will be developed forms part of the Ħal Far Industrial Estate.

It seems that now, even Malta Enterprise is playing electoral games. It is not normal for Malta Enterprise to release land forming part of an industrial estate for any purpose whatsoever.The development of the car-racing track on the indicated land will generate substantial noise pollution which will impact a residential area in Birżebbuġa which is not so far away. Mitigation measures may reduce slightly the impacts but it will keep annoying the residents just the same!The acoustic pollution will also have an impact on an area of ecological importance close by. We will now see how ERA reacts: turning a blind eye as usual!***Malta Enterprise daħlet fil-logħba elettoraliWara li illum ġie imħabbar li l-Gvern reġa’ ftakar fil-proposta elettorali ta’ trakka ta’ karozzi tat-tlielaq, Carmel Cacopardo iċ-Chairperson ta’ ADPD-The Green Party u Dr Melissa Bagley Deputat Segretarju Ġenerali ħarġu l-istqarrija segwenti:L-art li fuqha qiegħed jiġi propost li ssir t-trakka tal-karozza hi parti miż-żona industrijali ta’ Ħal Far. Issa anke Malta Enterprise daħlet fil-logħba elettorali. Mhux normali li Malta Enterprise tirrilaxxa art intenzjonata bħala parti minn żona industrijali għal kwalunke skop ieħorL-iżvilupp ta’ trakka tal-karozza fuq l-art indikata ser tikkawża tniġġis akustiku sostanzjali li se jkollu impatt fuq iż-żona residenzjali f’Birżebbuġa li mhix daqstant ‘il-bogħod. Miżuri ta’ mitigazzjoni jistgħu jnaqqsu xi ftit dan l-impatt imma sostanzjalment dan ser jibqa’ hemm idejjaq lin-nies!It-tniġġis akustiku se jimpatta ukoll liż-żona ta’ ħarsien ekoloġiku fil-qrib. Issa naraw kif l-ERA bħas-soltu tħalli kollox għaddej!
