The top stories in Malta's newspapers

The following are the top stories in Malta's newspapers on Monday.

Times of Malta leads with remarks by he founder of a homecare service that a shortage of live-in carers means elderly people are dying while waiting for carers. 

The newspaper, like all the others, also gives prominence to the death of a motorcyclist who was hit by a car driven by an underage driver. 

The Malta Independent quotes NGOs saying that the consultation the government has said it will have about planning proposals is farcical. The Bill for the reforms has already been published.  

On the same theme, In-Nazzjon says the prime minister has continued to defend the working group he appointed to conduct the planning reform consultation, despite widespread criticism over its composition.

l-orizzont leads with remarks by Health Minister Jo Etienne Abela that the 1400 phone service to divert patients away from the hospital's emergency department is working well.
