What is the Purpose of Malta’s Planning Laws?

The Malta Planning Act is a statute that governs the use of land and buildings in Malta. It aims to promote the well-being of the population by providing for a sustainable environment and regulating land use.

The Planning Act was first introduced in 1973, but it underwent a major overhaul in 2008. The act is divided into five parts: Part 1 deals with general provisions, Part 2 deals with planning schemes, Part 3 deals with applications for approval of development plans, Part 4 deals with development control orders and Part 5 deals with enforcement.

Malta Planning System – The Process for Getting a Maltese Planning Permit

The Malta Planning System is a system that is used to determine what type of permit a person needs for the construction or alteration of their building. The process for getting a Maltese planning permit starts with submitting an application to the Planning Authority. The application will then be reviewed by the Planning Authority and if approved, it will be sent to the Ministry of Housing, Utilities and Infrastructure. If approved by the Ministry, it will then be sent back to the Planning Authority who will then issue you with a planning permit.

The Malta Planning System has been in effect since 2006 and is used in order to regulate urban development and ensure that new buildings are in compliance with certain regulations such as height restrictions and parking requirements.
