Local councils of Malta


Since June 30, 1993, Malta has been subdivided into 68 localities, governed by local councils, kunsilli lokali, meaning municipalities or borough. These form the most basic form of local government and there are no intermediate levels between it and the national level. The levels of the 6 districts and of the 3 regions serve statistical purposes.
According to the Local Councils Act, Art. 3:

Every locality shall have a Council which shall have all such functions as are granted to it by this Act

...

Each locality shall be referred to by the name as designated in the Second Schedule and any reference to that locality shall be by the name so designated.
