Early this morning, the Planning Authority’s Compliance and Enforcement Directorate, sealed the Fajtata Kiosk at Marsaskala to stop further illegal use

The kiosk, which was being charged €10 a day for illegal encroachment, was taking over public space and changing the use of said space following the refusal of application PA/2580/21 submitted to the PA which sought permission for the permanent location of the kiosk on site.

This decision has been appealed and is still awaiting a decision by the Environment and Planning Review Tribunal.

However, until then, the kiosk can no longer operate, and has literally been shuttered.
