Il-GRTU wara l-bidu fis-sehh tal-ismoking ban

07 April 2004

Il-GRTU accettat b’sodisfazzjon il-postponiment tal-imposizzjoni ta’
l-ismoking ban fuq il-postijiet tad-divertiment u r-restoranti. Din hi decizjoni
li evitat konfrontazzjoni bla bzonn. Baqa’ izda xi jsir biex il-ligi tkun gusta
ma’ kulhadd.

ï‚· Ghad iridu jkunu stabbiliti l-istandards mill-Malta Standards
Authority biex l-apparat li jintuza jkun konformi ma’ standards approvati.
ï‚·
Ghad iridu jsiru diskussjonijiet dwar kif se jithaddmu l-proceduri ghall-ghazla
ta’ zoni non-smoking u smoking.
ï‚· Ghad ukoll jridu jkunu stabbiliti proceduri
dwar kif ser isiru l-inspections u kif ser ikunu notifikati s-sidien ta’
l-istabbilimenti meta jkun hemm rapporti negattivi.
ï‚· Zgur li ghad iridu
jsiru tahdidiet kif ser tkun emendata l-ligi biex jitnehhew l-penalitajiet
esagerati u titnehha l-oggezzjoni l-kbira tal-GRTU kontra li s-sidien jistghu
jmorru l-habs meta jinqabad xi hadd ipejjep fl-istabbiliment.

Bhala
organizazzjoni li tirraprezenta lis-sidien ta’ l-istabbilimenti milquta, il-GRTU
tistenna li bla aktar telf ta’ zmien tkun tifforma parti mill-kumitat
konsultattiv imwaqqaf taht it-Tobacco Control Act. Dan huwa pass importanti
hafna biex minn issa ‘l quddiem l-affarijiet isiru sewwa u bla argumenti
pubblici zejda.

Il-GRTU wkoll qed tistenna li l-Employment Relations
Board u mhux il-Ministeru tas-Sahha, jistabbilixxi meta u fuq liema proceduri
l-haddiema jkunu jistghu jieqfu mix-xoghol meta jkun hemm theddida reali ghal
sahhet il-haddiem ikkawzata mit-tipjip. Kif inhi l-ligi llum, din il-kwistjoni
mhix cara.

Fl-ahharnett il-GRTU ghadha qed tistenna l-gvern jghid
x’ghajnuna finanzjarja u fiskali ser jaghti biex is-sidien ta’ l-istabbilimenti
jkunu jistghu jikkonformaw mal-ligi minghajr ma jitghabbew bi spejjez kbar ohra.
Il-Ministeru tas-Sahha sal-lum ghadu ma applikax biex jigbed fondi taht
l-assistenza strutturali mill-Unjoni Ewropeja biex jintuzaw ghal dan
il-ghan.

Dawn huma l-punti fundamentali li l-GRTU ressqet lill-Ministru
tas-Sahha fit- tahdidiet li kellha mieghu. Il-Kunsill Ezekuttiv tal-GRTU hu
konfidenti li b’rieda tajba minn naha tal-gvern dawn il-problemi ghandhom
jirrisolvu ruhhom biex il-ligi tithaddem sewwa fiz-zmien
stipulat.
