More than 100 shops and businesses are offering discounts to residents in Malta and Gozo aged 60 and over as part of a new Kartanzjan scheme. Announcing the scheme on Tuesday, Active Ageing Minister Michael Farrugia said that, so far, 49 companies and around 102 shops are offering discounts ranging from five to 20% for all Kartanzjan holders. Farrugia said that over a quarter of the population is aged 60 and over, and such a scheme will help improve the elderly's standard of living. The scheme is indefinite and companies or businesses that wish to join can do so at any time. The list of businesses taking part and their latest offers will be constantly updated by the department.
