The Nationalist Party proposes increasing pensions by a minimum of €650 annually for all pensioners in Malta and Gozo. The measure is intended to help pensioners cope with rising living costs and strengthen financial support for the elderly.

The Nationalist Party proposes a payment of €2,000 per year to grandparents who take care of grandchildren (babies/toddlers), as part of a broader set of pension-related proposals.

PN proposes measures to improve flexible working arrangements aimed at enhancing work-life balance for parents and workers across Malta.

PN proposes introducing 15 days of dedicated government-paid leave for parents to care for sick children. The measure would be separate from personal vacation leave, which parents are currently required to use in such situations.

PN proposes that new family leave benefits introduced by the government would also apply to self-employed workers, including business owners and freelancers.

PN proposes extending maternity leave to six months at full pay for mothers.

PN proposes introducing paid leave entitlement for fathers following the birth of a child.

PN proposes retrofitting Gozo ferries with dedicated calming rooms, aimed at children who avoid the Malta–Gozo crossing due to potential panic or sensory distress.

PN proposes introducing dedicated 'Calming Rooms' on all Gozo Channel passenger vessels. The spaces would be designed to support children and individuals with anxiety, ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent conditions.

PN proposes a scheme under which registered NGOs and voluntary organisations would receive a full (100%) annual refund of VAT paid on goods and services directly linked to their mission and community work.

PN proposes a Child Trust Fund in which a Nationalist government would deposit €5,000 for every newborn child. The fund would grow over time and be accessible to the child at key life milestones.
