Set up on 1st January 2001, the Malta Communications Authority is a statutory body responsible for the regulation of the various electronic communications sectors, including fixed and mobile telephony, internet and TV distribution services. It also regulates the postal service and the e-commerce sector and administers the Web Accessibility Directive.

Its mission is to promote and safeguard a communications environment that is conducive to investment, innovation, economic growth and social well-being.

The Mission Statement reflects the MCA’s commitment to bringing forward all forms of communication under its legal mandate, given also that all of them constitute inter-related parts of the same eco-system.

The MCA’s Strategic Objectives are:

1. Promoting and safeguarding competition in the electronic communications sector

2. Ensuring that electronic communications undertakings provide a transparent, quality service to users in line with incumbent social obligations

3. Maintaining open, safe and secure electronic communications

4. Maximising the potential of radio spectrum

5. Supervising the provision of relevant digital services

6. Safeguarding sustainable competition in the postal sector

7. Ensuring that postal undertakings provide a transparent, quality service to users in line with incumbent social obligations

8. Contributing to the ongoing development and implementation of sector policy

9. Conducting relevant research, exploring and developing emergent policy areas

These objectives are reviewed on an annual basis and fine-tuned or changed, if necessary, to maintain full consistency and currency with the MCA’s Mission and Mandate, in the context of the fast-changing environment in which it operates.
