Before a standard can be published, it is an international practice that drafts are available for public comments. This will give any interested party the opportunity to influence the content of a standard. A list of titles of these draft standards and their respective enquiry deadlines are available from our Standards Library – contact the Librarian on (+356) 2395 2000.
Comments are to be sent either by e-mail or by mail to the Head of Standardization. All comments will be taken into consideration and discussed in the appropriate SMI technical committee/s.
Draft Standards at Voting Stage
The MCCAA is required to express the national vote as to whether a standard is acceptable or not. This is the last possibility for interested parties to make their comments on a draft standard. A list of titles of draft standards at voting stage and their respective voting deadlines are available from our Standards Library – contact the Librarian on (+356) 2395 2000.
Comments are to be sent either by e-mail or by mail to the Head of Standardization. The Authority will take into consideration all comments before expressing its national vote.

National Technical Committees
The MCCAA is the National Standards Body following EC reg. 1025/2012 with the remit to draft and publish National Standards. Interested parties who would also like to follow European and International Standardisation may request the MCCAA to set up a Mirror National Technical Committee made up of technical experts who can provide feedback and Malta’s position on Standardisation works. This also holds for interested parties who would like to develop and publish homegrown National Standards.
Interested parties wishing to submit comments on the above and in participating in development of Maltese, international or European standards are invited to write to the Head of Standardization by e-mail or correspond by mail at the address below.
