The Malta Development Association welcomes the Government’s decision to transform the White Rocks site into a National Park.

The Malta Development Association (MDA) welcomes the announcement made by the Prime Minister that the White Rocks site will be rehabilitated and transformed into a National Park for the benefit of the Maltese people.

The MDA’s position has always been that the priority use of government land should be for projects that serve the wider public interest, create open spaces, and enhance quality of life. The decision on White Rocks is a positive step in this direction, restoring a long-neglected area and returning it to the community after decades of abandonment.

The Association believes that the regeneration of White Rocks as a public park should serve as a model for how disused state property can be restored through well-structured partnerships, combining public stewardship with professional expertise from the private sector. Such collaboration would ensure that the park is properly planned, financed, and maintained to high standards, and that it remains accessible and safe for all.

The MDA reiterates its readiness to work closely with the authorities to support regeneration projects that enhance Malta’s urban and coastal landscape, promote good planning practice, and serve the public interest.
