AD Spokesperson for Social Protection and Health Mary Anne Zammit expressed the Green Party’s support of the work carried out by social workers and other public officials at Appogg. “More resources are required for Appogg so that it can cope with its heavy caseload, thus resulting in fairer working conditions for its dedicated staff”.
Chairperson Prof. Arnold Cassola expressed AD’s recognition of the work carried out by Appogg in relation to the welfare of families and children. Cassola also highlighted the need for more coordination between State policy makers and social researchers in order that social policies may be constantly updated.
