Byron Camilleri, Minister of Home Affairs, Security, and Employment, met with the Malta Council for Economic and Social Development (MCESD) to go over the principles of the Malta Labour Migration Policy. This policy intends to alter the manner that third-country workers are hired in our nation and will be made available for public comment in the days ahead.

This policy intends to alter the manner that third-country workers are hired in the country and will be made available for public comment in the days ahead.

“While we were creating this policy, we received a lot of feedback. Even while we are quite pleased of the advancements our nation has made recently, we think that discussing success does not imply ignoring some of its negative effects, which we must confront. One of them is the manner in which the nation controls the immigration of laborers from third-world nations.

In light of the nation’s interests and the values upon which we are building this policy, I urge everyone to participate in the robust public consultation process that we are about to implement. During a conversation with social partners, Minister Camilleri stated, “These are principles that everyone should agree with.”
