Malta

Malta is a parliamentary representative democratic republic. Malta has two levels of government: central or federal (a House of Representatives) and municipal (local councils). The President of Malta is the country's constitutional head of state, while the Prime Minister of Malta is the head of its government and cabinet. Legislative power in Malta is held in the Parliament of Malta, consisting of the President and a unicameral House of Representatives.

Malta's House of Representatives elects the President of Malta. Ministers are selected by the President, with the recommendation of the Prime Minister, from members of the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives consists of 65 members from 13 constituencies.

Elections

Central government elections are held at least every five years (2008, 2013, etc.) The electoral system is a single transferable vote.

Political Parties

There are two main political parties in Malta: the Partit Nazzjonalista (Nationalist Party or PN) and the Partit Laburista (Labour Party or PL).

Local councils are elected every three years in a proportional representation single transferable vote system. The Mayor is the head of the Council, while the Executive Secretary (appointed by the Council) is its executive, administrative, and financial head.

Local council's services include the general upkeep of Maltese villages, embellishments such as gardens and parks, local wardens, rubbish and recyclables collection, bulk refuse collection, public WiFi, libraries, the collection of rents and funds for the central government, and answering government-related public inquiries.
