Minister of Finance and Economy Jean Castellini, accompanied by Albert Croesi, lead manager reporting to H.E. the Minister of State on the Apolline issue, Rémy Rolland, Director of the State Property Authority, and Alain Laurent, Deputy Director of Public Works, visited retailers at the Jardins d’Apolline building today to give an update on the solutions which will be introduced to mitigate the problems that might impact their businesses over the coming months.

The retailers shared their fears about a likely decline in business due to the work which will be carried out in the various blocks. They also expressed their wish to communicate and stressed that they would remain open, even if they had to move.

Jean Castellini was keen to reassure those present that the effects of the work would be limited and that solutions would be implemented: “We will do everything we can to minimise disruption as far as possible for everyone, and to handle each situation on a case by case basis.”
