coming from the European Union.
Questioned by the media on Wednes-

clarify the reasons behind the marginal
rise in expenditure, from €14.75 million
in 2023 to €14.8 million in 2024, specif-
ically designated for energy distribution,
as indicated in the budget estimates, de-
spite the Prime Minister's promise to so-
cial partners in summer.

FOREIGN workers have become an es-
sential element within Malta's logistics
industry, with their input being crucial
for its ongoing development and pros-
perity.
By embracing the skills and abilities
they offer, addressing hurdles while advo-
cating for fair and inclusive employment
practices, a thriving and enduring logis-
tics sector in Malta can be guaranteed.
is was the key message emerging
from the SME National Forum 2023,
hosted by the Malta Employers Asso-
ciation, which this year focused on the
HR challenges of foreign workers in the
logistics industry.
