Former port workers ask PM to resolve outstanding pensions claims

General Workers Union presents petition to Prime Minister.

General Workers Union secretary-general Tony Zarb has presented the Prime Minister with a petition signed by over 500 former port employees who claimed they were not given their pensions from a fund that they had contributed during their employment.

The petition calls on the Prime Minister to call a meeting as soon as possible to find a solution to this problem.

Zarb address the former port workers at the GWU headquarters in the afternoon, where he claimed finance minister Tonio Fenech had promised a counter-offer to their demands. Fenech had since denied promising this proposal.

The GWU has made a declaration under oath in court, saying that Fenech had promised them to look into the pensions claims.
