There is currently no specific Marine Biotechnology strategy or policy in Malta. Overarching Maltese Science & Technology Policy is described in a National Strategy for Research and Innovation for the period 2007-2010 (Building and Sustaining the Research and Innovation Enabling Framework). Currently a National Strategy for Research and Innovation for the period 2011-2020 is being developed.
