6. METHODOLOGICAL NOTESNOTES

Methodological Notes GENERAL DEFINITIONS Usual residence: refers to the place where a person normally spends the daily period of rest, regardless of temporary absences for purposes of recreation, holidays, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment or religious pilgrimage. This definition is line with the European Regulation (EC) No. 1260/2013. The following persons alone shall be considered to be usual residents of a specific geographical area:

those who have lived in their place of usual residence for a continuous period of at least 12

months before the reference time; or

those who arrived in their place of usual residence during the 12 months before the reference time with the intention of staying there for at least one year.

Usually resident population: refers to all persons who have their usual residence in a Member State at the reference time. Unless otherwise stated, all figures in this publication refer to this reference population.

SECTION 1: POPULATION

All population components are based on definitions provided for in the European Regulation (EU) No. 1260/2013 on European demographic statistics.

Total Population: includes both Maltese and foreign residents. The total population at the end of year t, is computed using the following equation:

Pt = Pt-1 + Bt - Dt + It – Et , where:

Pt is the total resident population at the end of year t,

Pt-1 is the total resident population at the end of year t-1,

Bt is the total number of births born to mothers resident in Malta registered during year t,

Dt is the total number of deaths of persons resident in Malta registered during year t,

It is the total immigration of both Maltese and foreign nationals registered during year t who immigrated with the intention to live in Malta for a period of at least 12 months.

Et is the total emigration of both Maltese and foreign nationals resident in Malta registered during year t who leave the country for a period of at least 12 months.

Maltese Population: includes Maltese residents only. The Maltese population at the end of year t is computed using the following equation:

P’t = P’t-1 + B’t – D’t + I’t – E’t , where:

P’t is the Maltese resident population at the end of year t,

P’t-1 is the Maltese resident population at the end of year t-1,

B’t is the number of Maltese births born to mothers resident in Malta registered during year t,

D’t is the number of deaths occurring to Maltese citizens resident in Malta during year t,

I’t is the total immigration of Maltese nationals registered during year t who immigrated with the intention to live in Malta for a period of at least 12 months.

E’t is the total emigration of Maltese nationals during year t who leave the country for a period of at least 12 months.

Maltese and Total mid-year Population: these are calculated by averaging beginning and end-year population estimates.

Population Projections: EUROPOP (EUROpean POPulation projections) are a series of population projections released by Eurostat, the Statistical Office of the European Communities. The latest set of

103

European Population projections refer to the base year 2013, thus short named as EUROPOP2013. EUROPOP2013 is a 'Convergence Trends' scenario that includes short-term (nowcasting), medium-term (trend) and long-term (convergence) components.

Computations are based on a cohort-component method with 1 January 2013 as the base population, disaggregated by sex and age. Data on population, live births and deaths used as input data in the EUROPOP2013 round are official statistics provided by the national statistical authorities to Eurostat in the frame of annual demographic data collection. Migration flows have been measured in terms of net migration (including statistical adjustment) and computed as residual from the annual demographic balance.

As was the case with the previous EUROPOP2010, the convergence year was set to 2150. The ‘main input dataset’, which defines the frame of the main scenario for producing population projections, includes:

2013 base-population;

assumptions for fertility, mortality and international net migration (including statistical adjustment).

a. Fertility

The transition starts in 2020 and the model for convergence is linear interpolation between fertility rates in the last observed year and the rates of the ultimate distribution. A constraint on the total fertility rate is set to 1.928.

b. Mortality

The convergence model is an exponential interpolation between mortality rates in the last observed year and the rates of the ultimate distribution.

c. Total net migration flows

These are based on the convergence assumption and are computed on the logic adopted in the previous population projections, EUROPOP2010. The convergence model assumes net migration to converge to zero in the convergence year. Intermediate values for the total net migration are obtained by means of a double linear interpolation between net migration levels in the last observed year and zero in the convergence year, the intermediate point being obtained as an average of the last 10 years. In case a country has a negative intermediate point, the convergence is brought forward to 2035 in order to avoid negative net migration for a very long period.

SECTION 2: BIRTHS

Total live births: includes all babies born and registered with the Public Authorities in Malta. Still births are excluded. Crude birth rate: the number of total live births per thousand mid-year population. Live births resident in Malta: includes all babies whose parent(s) is(are) resident in Malta at the time of birth. Therefore the definition excludes babies born to mothers who are resident abroad.

104

Maltese live births: includes all babies born and registered with the Public Authorities in Malta, having a Maltese father or mother if they are born in wedlock, and having a Maltese mother if outside wedlock. Maltese crude birth rate: the number of Maltese live births per thousand mid-year Maltese population. Total fertility rate: the number of children that would be born to a woman if she were to live to the end of her child-bearing years, and bear children in accordance with current age-specific fertility rates. Live-birth order: the numerical order of the live birth being recorded, in relation to all previous live babies born to the mother. In the case of multiple issue, each live-born is counted separately. Maternities: includes both still and live births. Multiple births are counted as one maternity.

SECTION 3: DEATHS Total deaths: includes all registered deaths of Maltese and foreign nationals resident in Malta and Gozo. This definition excludes tourists, but includes Maltese residents who die abroad. Total deaths exclude still births. Crude death rate: the total number of deaths per thousand mid-year total population. Maltese deaths: includes all registered deaths of Maltese nationals resident in Malta and Gozo. This definition includes Maltese residents who die abroad. Maltese deaths exclude still births. Maltese crude death rate: the number of Maltese deaths per thousand mid-year Maltese population. Still births: deaths occurring to babies prior to complete expulsion or extraction from the mother, and having a gestational age of more than 22 weeks. Neonatal deaths: deaths occurring within the first 28 days after birth. Infant deaths: deaths occurring during the first year of life. Infant mortality rate: the number of infant deaths per thousand life births. Life expectancy at birth: the number of years a newborn is expected to live if mortality in the various age groups remains at the level of the period in which the expectation of life is computed. SECTION 4: MIGRATION This domain comprises the compilation of statistics on international migration, as stipulated by Article 3 of the European Regulation (EC) 862/2007. The NSO carries out such work both by using own sources and in collaboration with government entities that provide access to administrative records. This is shown in Table M1:

information on the country of residence one year prior to the Census. By using the same question in LFS, the change between the Census reference year and the LFS reference period is observed

2 Calculations are based on information collected by TOURSTAT on Maltese nationals travelling from Malta, basing on the past three years. Duration of trips is analysed and the average number of persons whose intention is to stay abroad for 12 months or over is calculated

3 Calculations in respect of immigration of EU Nationals are based on information provided by ETC’s engagement forms. This information is linked to termination of employment data in order to remove persons who have not been employed for at least one year. A check is then made with the I.D Card database to remove persons who were registered in Malta prior to the reference year

Calculations in respect of emigration of EU Nationals are based on termination of employment data. Persons who terminated their job and have not been re-employed are considered as emigrants

Calculations in respect of immigration and emigration of EU Nationals’ dependants are based on extractions from the most recent edition of the Census of Population and Housing

4 Migration of Third-Country Nationals (TCNs) draws on two types of records: Asylum Records and Residence Permits

Asylum Records:

REFCOM is used to extract information on persons, covered by a first-instance decision, who have been granted refugee status, subsidiary protection status or temporary protection status. Emigration of TCNs includes re-settled persons who, following a re-settlement request from UNHCR which is based on such persons’ need for international protection, are transferred to a Member State where they are permitted to reside

Residence Permits:

Calculations of immigration of TCNs are based on residence permits that have a duration of at least one year. These are linked with the I.D Card database and ETC records to remove persons who were registered in Malta prior to the reference year. Calculations of emigration of TCNs take into consideration persons whose residence permit has not been extended, and who have had a viable permit for more than one year

106

Immigration: the action by which a natural person establishes his or her usual residence in a territory of a State for a period that is, or is expected to last, a minimum of 12 months. This figure is measured by summing up the count of all new employment engagement forms and residence permit holders, their dependants, asylum seekers under protection, returned migrants and new adoptions of children from foreign countries. Emigration: the action by which a natural person leaves his or her usual residence in the territory of the Member State for a period that is, or is expected to last, a minimum of 12 months. This figure is measured by summing up the counts of all employment termination forms which ended during the reference year; residence permit holders who fail to extend their permits during the reference year, together with their dependants; resettled or repatriated asylum seekers who were previously given protection and other Maltese emigrants (i.e. persons who leave the country for a period of at least 12 months). Asylum applicant: a person who submits an application for international protection to the Office of the Refugee Commissioner. Application for asylum: the application made by a third-country national or stateless person, which can be understood as a request for international protection from a Member State under the Geneva Convention. Any application for international protection is presumed to be an application for asylum (including requests for refugee status or for subsidiary protection status) unless a third-country national or a stateless person explicitly requests another kind of protection that can be applied for separately. An application for asylum is deemed to have been lodged once a form is submitted by the applicant for asylum, or an authoritative report is received by the competent authorities. Refugee: a third-country national who, owing to a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership of a particular social group, is outside the country of nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail him/herself of the protection of that country. A refugee can also be a stateless person who, being outside the country of former habitual residence for the reasons mentioned above, is unable or, owing to such fear, unwilling to return to that country (Directive 2004/83/EC, Art.2 (d)). Third-country national: any person who is not a citizen of the European Union.

Person eligible for subsidiary protection: a third-country national or stateless person who does not qualify as a refugee but in respect of whom substantial grounds have been shown for believing that the person concerned, if returned to the country of former habitual residence, would face a real risk of suffering serious harm or, owing to such risk, is unable to avail him/herself of the protection of that country. Person granted authorisation to stay for humanitarian reasons: a person who is not considered to be eligible for international protection, but who is nonetheless protected against removal. In such cases a decision is taken which grants the person concerned authorisation to stay from humanitarian reasons. Rejected applicant: a person in respect of whom a decision is taken by the responsible national authority to reject an application for international protection. Unaccompanied minors: third-country nationals or stateless persons below the age of 18, who arrive in the territory of the State unaccompanied by an adult responsible for them, whether such responsibility is in terms of law or custom, and for as long as they are not effectively taken into the care of such an adult. The definition includes minors who are left unaccompanied following their entrance into the territory of the State (Directive 2004/83/EC, Art.2(i)). Third-country nationals found to be illegally present: persons who are officially found to be in the territory of the State and who do not fulfil, or no longer fulfil, the conditions for stay or residence in the State. Registration: the action by which foreign residents register themselves as Maltese citizens at the Citizenship and Expatriate Affairs Department. Registered persons are included in the Maltese population count. Naturalisation: the action by which a foreigner may be granted Maltese citizenship according to the Maltese Citizenship Act.

107

SECTION 5: FAMILY FORMATION AND DISSOLUTION Total marriages: marriages registered in Malta and Gozo, including marriages between non-resident foreign spouses. Crude marriage rate: the number of marriages per thousand mid-year total population. Civil marriages: non-religious marriages that are recognised by law in Malta. Separations: information extracted from records held at the Public Registry in Malta and Gozo. This includes separations that involve Maltese and/or foreign spouses and which have been concluded by a legal contract. Annulments: includes annulments of religious and civil marriages between Maltese and/or foreign spouses, extracted from records held at the Public Registry in Malta and Gozo. Divorces obtained in Malta: includes divorces that involve both Maltese and foreign spouses. Divorce registration was introduced in Malta at the end of 2011 (Civil Code Amendment Act 2011 (Act XIV of 2011)). Divorces obtained abroad: includes divorces that involve both Maltese and foreign spouses. The definition is inclusive of divorces that were accepted by the Laws of Malta in terms of Section 33 of the Marriage Act (1975), for which records are held at the Public Registry in Malta and Gozo.
