This initiative aims to restore the historic bakery, situated close to the Santa Maria Bay and that once sustained the community of Comino, and transform it into an environmental education centre.Â
NGOs opposing the urban village being proposed by Hili Group on Comino are vowing to fight on to save the islet from further commercialisation and over-construction. The Court of Appeal turned down the NGO appeal over the adequacy of the Appropriate Assessment Report which was given the thumbs up by ERA.
