Malta in figures : 2014

Abstract

Malta in Figures 2014 provides a selection of relevant statistics that reflect Maltese society and the economy. It presents a range of information, from hallmark indicators that define the economic state of the country to statistics on population, health, education and tourism. The sources include government authorities and departments, other authoritative entities, as well as a number of surveys which are carried out by the NSO in line with EU harmonised standards and methodologies. This publication is designed as a practical and handy guide to users. It does not, however, represent the extent of the NSO’s output. Readers are encouraged to use this booklet as a starting point to the additional and complementary body of information available through the NSO’s website and online database. Many of the sections are enriched by explanatory notes which should be read in conjunction with the tables and charts. The National Statistics Office is Malta’s official national statistical agency.
