SPECIAL TASK FORCE ON DEVELOPING INVESTMENT PROJECT
PIPELINE IN THE EU- MALTA PROJECT LIST

List of Key Investment Projects that are economically viable and whose

implementation may start before 2018 but cannot be realised now due to
identified bottlenecks or barriers.

Introduction

Following participation in the first two Task Force (TF) meetings and having

considered the views of the Secretariat and the inputs of colleagues from other
Member States (MS), the list of potential projects to be submitted by Malta
was discussed by the Ministry For Finance (MFF) with other Ministries who are

somehow connected with such projects and were referred for final
consideration to the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM).

Malta has decided that in choosing the projects recommended for

consideration by the TF it should adopt the following parameters:

1. Projects being considered under other EU initiatives or programmes

should not be included in the recommended list to the TF and should be
allowed to run their course under existing programmes or initiatives.

2. Projects recommended in the TF list are on the long term infrastructure

project list co-ordinated within the OPM without a fixed time frame for
lack of the necessary enabling resources.

3. Projects recommended have broadly to be suitable for execution within
a PPP framework with government contribution being mostly non-

financial, mainly in the form of :

a. Non-financial assets e.g. land, buildings and intangible rights
b. Research and technical studies bringing projects to shovel-ready

state from technical aspects.
