The SME Chamber calls for more vigilance to foresee future threats that may negatively impact local Businesses
The Malta Chamber of SMEs welcomes the recent EU court ruling. This significant victory ensures that the local transport and logistics sector will not be burdened by disproportionately restrictive rules that fail to take into account the unique challenges Malta faces as a small island nation.
The court’s decision reaffirms the importance of fair and balanced EU legislation that considers the realities of all member states, particularly those with specific needs for countries like Malta. The SME Chamber acknowledges the work and effort put in Maltese representatives to defend Malta’s interests in this case.
Moving forward this case in particular underscores the need for continued vigilance in monitoring EU legislative proposals that may adversely affect Maltese businesses.
The Malta Chamber of SMEs urges national representatives and stakeholders to remain proactive in identifying and flagging potential threats at the earliest stages of the legislative process.
A collaborative approach between Maltese MEPs, government officials, industry experts and social partners is essential to ensure that Malta’s voice is heard and its interests are protected in all future EU regulations.
The Malta Chamber of SMEs remains available to work alongside our EU counterparts and Maltese representatives to promote and defend the rights of our business community, ensuring that future policies are tailored to the diverse needs of Malta.
