"Since the revolution in modern telecommunications that followed the invention of the telegraph, telecommunication networks have provided channels for the fast delivery of communications across national borders. This transnational nature of telecommunication networks have led to the establishment of international regulatory regimes on the subject. On the other hand, developing countries consider regional economic integration as a major strategy for promoting trade and development, telecommunications have been seen within this context as a strategic tool for facilitating regional economic integration. This has also led to the establishment of regional telecommunication regulatory regimes that aim to promote regional integration and regulatory harmonization. This book discusses telecommunication regimes established by international and regional organizations such as the United Nations, the International Telecommunication Union, the World Trade Organization, the African Union, the Economic Community of West African States, and the Southern African Development Community, among a number of others"--Back cover

The aim of this article is to briefly describe legislation dealing with tobacco control in Malta. Although no actual strategy on tobacco control is in place to date, Malta's tobacco control approach is mainly based on comprehensive legislation arising mostly from of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC). Malta's ratification of this international WHO treaty was instrumental in the passing of such legislation of which the most important features are banning of all tobacco advertising and sponsorship, and the prohibition of smoking in public and work places. EU Regulations, most importantly Directive 2014/40/EU on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning the manufacture, presentation and sale of tobacco and related products and repealing Directive 2001/37/EC, was also contributory to the introduction of stronger packaging regulations and new regulatory frameworks for the control of electronic cigarettes and new and emerging tobacco products under the classification of novel tobacco products. While increases in excise tax is generally regarded as an effective tobacco control measure, tobacco control legislation also plays an important role in a comprehensive tobacco control strategy. Bans on tobacco advertising, bans on smoking in public and work places and pictorial health warnings on packaging denormalise smoking and are likely to make other tobacco control interventions more effective. ; peer-reviewed
