“One of the biggest challenges is recognising that something is happening in the first place. Laws are absolutely useless if we have a situation where we don’t realise, as HR practitioners, what is happening and that there is a case of harassment”

- Dr Matthew Brincat, Partner at Ganado Advocates, at GBV Final Conference

The President of the Malta Chamber of Commerce William Spiteri Bailey has told The Malta Independent on Sunday that the government's new measures relating to Third Country Nationals do not appear to be "sufficiently calibrated" to achieving the economic transformation that the country needs.

The measures announced in Budget 2027 for Third-Country Nationals (TCNs) fall short of the careful planning and calibration required. We have consistently supported rigorous, evidence-based initiatives, notably the national Labour Migration Policy, developed through months of constructive social consultation to better manage labour migration.

We are therefore concerned that these measures were announced without prior stakeholder consultation or a comprehensive socio-economic impact assessment. While recognising the need for a well-regulated labour market, decisions affecting business costs, labour availability and competitiveness should be evidence-informed and developed through genuine social dialogue before they are introduced.

This Press Release is issued jointly with Malta Chamber of SMEs, Malta Hotels and Restaurants Association and Malta Employers.
