An inspection campaign, aimed at assessing safety and security in shops at the Isa Town Traditional Market, was held by the Southern Municipality as part of an awareness drive.
The campaign, led by the municipality’s Inspection and Control Department and Markets and Property Department, is being carried out in co-operation with the Electricity and Water Authority (EWA) and Civil Defence.
It aims to educate shop-owners about the importance of adhering to requirements of safety and security laws in order to avoid any electric short-circuits or fires, especially in the summer, where high temperatures means a heightened risk.
The authorities conducted inspections to ensure all safety and security requirements are being met at the shops.
