    Postal Diary 14th February 2014 -tst December 2014 by John De Battista 14th February The Malta Communications Authority published it's "The MCA Strategic Plan Update 2014-2016 ".What follows is an excerpt with regards to the Postal Service: "The Maltese postal sector passed a significant milestone at the commencement of the current year, namely full liberalisation. In the run up to liberalisation, the Government had, with the assistance of the MCA, consulted on and thereafter legislated on a regulatory framework based on the concept of Significant Market Power (SMP). In line with the principles and broad methodology enunciated in legislation, the MCA thereafter put the detail around the concept and embarked on a planned programme of market analyses. The analyses will establish whether or not MaltaPost retains SMP on the various postal markets in which it operates. The analyses are meant to protect consumers and the development of competition in general, as much as they are meant to protect MaltaPost via deregulation where markets are found to be competitive. Beyond the competition aspects, the overall sustainability of the Universal Postal Service needs to be questioned and revised if necessary, particularly in the light of rapidly changing behaviour patterns on the part of users. It will therefore be necessary to ensure that Universal Service Obligations placed upon the incumbent are proportionate and up to present day requirements. The distinction between Universal Postal Service and express mail services should be clarified further. This is an issue that is being faced in all jurisdictions and it is expected that beyond the work undertaken by the MCA there will be further clarification at European level." 18th February The Malta Communications Authority published its "Annual Plan 2014" in which its strategic objectives for the Postal Service were: 1.
