The Power of the board

Malta Independent Sunday, 20 July 2008, 00:00 Last update: about 19 years ago

From Ms L. Houlton

Does being on a Mepa board or committee allow you all the power you want? So it would seem from the statistics presented by FAA at a recent court case against Mepa in Gozo.

Become a practising architect on one of the Mepa boards and the DCC committees will be at your side, overruling applications recommended

for refusal. It’s not a

problem!

After all, what is at stake here is only our countryside, our architecture and the health of the people; what is being compromised here is only the moral and ethical obligations to the Maltese public! No wonder we’re in such a mess!
