Zminijietna has said that, “full time mayors are needed to ensure better management of localities.”

The Left think-tank organisation stressed that “localities with high rates of tourists should be given the assistance they deserve from the Government to better manage the problem of waste and cleaning of roads.”

Zminijietna added that, “in every locality there are those specific areas where waste is being dumped illegally, and the answer to this should be an improvement in enforcement, based on a system of ‘green wardens’ and installation of cameras powered by solar panels.”

In addition, it said, “we insists that Mayors should perform their duties on a full time basis, in order to increase efficiency, cleanliness and better management of the locality.”

Voice of the Left added, “regarding places used for the separation of waste and the BCRS scheme, the entity that manages the system must be obliged to keep the areas clean.”

The left organisation Zminijietna concluded by saying “that the Government should financially assist the councils to invest in new technology and human resources so that green urban spaces, street furniture and rubbish bins are kept in good and clean condition.”
