Administering EU funds in Malta

In the case of our country, EU funding allocation will go to Malta and Gozo as a single country and will be administered by the national structures and not by separate administrations in Malta and Gozo as this would not be cost-effective.

In other words, although Malta and Gozo will be separate regions at NUTS 3 level, they will benefit from one single funding allocation given to the country as a whole because it is the entire country that has been classified at NUTS 2 level. As a region at NUTS 3, Gozo would still benefit from the funding allocated to the wider region at NUTS 2 level (Malta and Gozo) because it forms part of it.
