Why it matters
The discussion highlighted the need for sanitation workers to receive benefits under the MCC’s 24.10% allocation and the Social Welfare Department, alongside existing housing schemes. This indicates ongoing pressure on municipal budgets regarding labor costs and social welfare provision.
