Malta: High level Group


A European approach to the governance of the sea
by Censu Galea
Malta has welcomed the conclusions of the High Level Group chaired by former Transport Commissioner Mrs Loyola De Palacio – which were adopted by the Ministerial Conference on the Motorways of the Sea in Ljubljana last month – to identify priority transport networks with neighbouring countries, particularly in the light of the EU Neighbour-hood Policy.
"I believe that a European approach to the governance of the sea, one that is innovative and aimed at enabling greater prosperity and dialogue within regions sometimes fraught with tension, would represent a significant 21st century development to the benefit of all". -Galea-
