Further mediation between the Transport Federation and the Transport Ministry is currently underway after a draft agreement was rejected by the Federation earlier on Thursday.

This was reportedly revealed by the Federation’s president Victor Spiteri himself in Qormi, where all red minibuses are being kept together and watched over by police officers who are controlling the flow of minibuses leaving and returning. Similarly, the flow of buses leaving and returning from the Valletta Bus Terminus and white taxis at the airport are being controlled by the police.

Spiteri also said that there was the possibility of the Armed Forced of Malta taking over public transport operations by sequestrating buses in Valletta.
