Constituency Minister for the South District John Cortes held the third 'Town Hall’ style Constituency meeting on Monday at the Central Hall.

The meeting was attended by a cross section of constituents as well as members of the Transport Ministry team and the Technical Services Department. Representatives of Gibdock had been invited and were present too.

Being the third meeting, there was an opportunity to report back on some action taken on issues raised in previous meetings. A number of issues were raised by the constituents, including traffic and transport, structural issues and air quality.  Officials present were able to clarify some issues, and note others that will be actioned subsequently, with feedback given at a later stage. The fourth meeting is expected to be held in January.

Minister Cortes commented: “I very much enjoy meeting the constituents in the heart of the South District.  It’s very helpful to hear of concerns directly and to have members of my team there on tap. I am grateful to them for their contribution and look forward to continuing these meetings through our term in Government.”
