Abstract: | Malta, the smallest EU member state, is a former British colony in the Mediterranean with a political system based on the Westminster/Whitehall 'export model' (Warrington 1997: 86). Politics centres on a two-party system, the 'purest' in Europe, with the result that Government always enjoys an absolute control over Parliamentary business, heavily empowering the political class and, in particular, the Office of the Prime Minister.1 These characteristics influence the nature of lobbying in Malta. |
