The programme was generously supported by the United Nations Population Fund and various national institutions, in particular the "Université de Montréal", Canada and Duke University, U.S.A. Moreover, the realisation of this project has been facilitated through its co-sponsorship with the International Institute on Ageing (United Nations - Malta), popularly known as INIA/ There is no doubt that these country monographs will be useful to a large range of scholars and decision-makers in many places of the world.

  • Malta Fisheries
    PROJECT: FAO COPEMED ARTISANAL FISHERIES IN THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN Malta Fisheries The Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture of Malta By: Ignacio de Leiva, Charles Busuttil, Michael Darmanin, Matthew Camilleri. 1. Introduction The Maltese fishing industry may be categorised mainly in the artisanal sector since only a small number of fishing vessels, the larger ones, operate on the high seas. The number of registered gainfully employed full-time fishermen is 374 and the number of vessels owned by them is 302. Fish landings recorded at the official fish market in 1997 amounted to a total of 887 metric tonnes, with a value of approx. Lm 1.5 million (US$4,000,000). Fishing methods adopted in Malta are demersal trawling, "lampara" purse seining, deep-sea long-lining, inshore long-lining, trammel nets, drift nets and traps. The most important commercial species captured by the Maltese fleet are included as annex 1. 2. Fishing fleet The main difference between the full-time and artisanal category is that the smaller craft are mostly engaged in coastal or small scale fisheries. The boundary between industrial and artisanal fisheries is not always well defined and with the purpose of regional standardisation the General Fisheries Council for the Mediterranean (GFCM), at its Twenty-first Session held in Alicante, Spain, from 22 to 26 May 1995, agreed to set a minimum length limit of 15 metres for the application of the "Agreement to Promote Compliance with International Conservation and Management Measures by Fishing Vessels on the High Seas" and therefore Maltese vessels over 15 m length should be considered as industrial in line with this agreement.

  • Foreigners in Maltese Prisons: Spanning the 150-Year Divide
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 2 No. 24 [Special Issue – December 2012] Foreigners in Maltese Prisons: Spanning the 150-year Divide Saviour Formosa, PhD Sandra Scicluna, PhD Janice Formosa Pace, MSc Department of Criminology Faculty for Social Wellbeing University of Malta Humanities A (Laws, Theology, Criminology) Msida MSD 2080 Abstract Reviewing the incidence of foreigners in the Maltese Islands’ prisons entails an understanding of the realities pertaining to each period under study. Taking a multi-methodological approach, this 150-year study initially qualitatively reviews the situational circumstances faced by Foreign and Maltese offenders between the mid 19th and mid 20th Century, followed by a quantitative and spatial analysis of the post 1950 period, followed by an indepth analysis of the 1990s offenders. A classification system of what is termed as a foreigner offender is created, which employment resulted in the findings that there are distinct differences in structure in terms of foreign offender and the offences they commit when compared to their Maltese counterparts. Findings show that the longer the foreigner stays on the islands, the higher the potentiality of emulation to the Maltese counterpart’s structure both in terms of offence type, offender residential and offence spatial locations. Keywords : Foreign offenders, spatial analysis, prisons, offender-offence relationship, Maltese Islands 1. Introduction The incidence of foreigners in Maltese prisons is virtually unknown with studies focusing on the generic ‘foreigner’ component, irrespective of the purpose of entry to Malta (Scicluna, 2004; Formosa, 2007). This paper investigates sentenced offenders in Malta’s prisons and develops a classification system which distinguishes between short-term visitors, long-term residents and foreigners who became Maltese citizens.

Conclusion 28 Page 2 of 28 Fgura Black Dust Case 1.0 Executive Summary This report has been drawn up by MEPA following a request by the Office of the Prime Minister. It describes the various studies and analyses that have been carried out since 1999 in order to determine the nature and possible cause of the sporadic problem of black dust in the south eastern part of Malta. Major studies on the subject were carried out in 2000 and 2007, with further investigations ongoing throughout 2009 in response to spates of complaints from residents in the area. In order to take appropriate remedial measures, the first step is to identify the source of the ‘black dust’. The chemical and other analysis carried out so far does not clearly indicate any particular single source. Moreover, analysis of the air quality in the area shows that the limits set out by the relevant European Union directives on air quality are not being exceeded. MEPA will continue monitoring and studying this issue to identify trends, sources and possible remedial measures. Page 3 of 28 Fgura Black Dust Case 2.0 The Stacey Report – September 2000 2.1 Background and methodology This report was commissioned some time in the latter part of 1999, following complaints from members of the public living in the south-east of Malta (Fgura, Tarxien, Sta Lucija, Zabbar, Paola).

ABSTRACT The Maltese Islands have a history of water resource problems. A high proportion of the Maltese population has suffered over the past few years from water scarcity caused mainly by: (a) a shortage in water production and escalating water demands; (b) rising salinity levels in groundwater and tap water; (c) an undersized and deteriorating distribution system; and (d) increasing levels of groundwater pollution.
