FOREWORD Malta is small yet diverse. A careful analysis of social security benefits by locality reveals a surprising social fabric for some, and a confirmation of what is already known for others. This edition updates the one first published in 2009, giving details on public expenditure on various benefits by locality, and in comparison to the national average. This publication shows how a substantial part of general government revenue is spent on monetary payments to enhance the welfare of all citizens, be they unemployed, sick, disabled, elderly, or persons with dependent children. It includes the number of persons eligible for specific benefits, whether means-tested or not. It brings to light how money is re-distributed by the state to provide an equitable level of well-being and social support for citizens who need this help. Clear policy interventions emerge for elected representatives, both at a local and at a national level. This can be seen in localities which stand out for the amount of unemployment benefits their residents receive, the share of single unmarried parent benefits, and children’s allowances, for example. Differences are also evident between the mainland and Gozo. This publication should therefore serve to bring to the fore realities which exist in our towns and villages, and how these have changed in the recent past. It should also provide a useful tool to planners and decision makers to devise ways of addressing these realities and to design measures for dealing with them. My appreciation goes to the Public Finance Unit, especially Mark Galea and Shaun Sammut, for compiling the information and harnessing it into this interesting publication.

COMMENTARY There were 46 social benefit schemes in force between 2004 and 2012. However, the Children’s Allowance Flat Rate and Pensions of Widows with Children were introduced in 2008, while the Maternity Leave Benefit was introduced in 2012. For each social benefit analysed in this publication, the ratio between the actual number of beneficiaries and the expected number of beneficiaries was computed for each district. The latter figure is based on the national average of beneficiaries. The scope is to indicate how the number of beneficiaries in each district stood in comparison with the national average, that is, which districts contained more claimants than expected and those districts whose number of beneficiaries was inferior to the mean. The gross expenditure, received by the beneficiaries, was also calculated for each benefit. There were 23,965 Children’s Allowance (CA) beneficiaries in 2012, where the Northern Harbour region contained the most recipients (6,518), as was the case in 2004 and 2008. However, as a percentage of the resident population, that the Southern Harbour region benefitted the most with 7.0 per cent being Children’s Allowance beneficiaries. On the other hand, the Western region had the least beneficiaries, with only 4.6 per cent of the population receiving Children’s Allowance. The Western region also experienced the greatest decline in Children’s Allowance recipients, 47.6 per cent less beneficiaries than there were in 2004. An analysis by locality shows that, Xgħajra (11.3 per cent of its population) and Cospicua (9.5 per cent) had the most Children’s Allowance beneficiaries, while Tas-Sliema (2.6 per cent) and Swieqi (2.7 per cent) had the least. Compared to 2004, each locality experienced a decrease in Children’s Allowance recipients, with Iklin registering the sharpest decline, from 104.8 persons (per 1,000 population) in 2004 to 41.4 persons (per 1,000 population) in 2012. The Western region benefitted the most (63.4 recipients per 1,000 population) from the Children’s Allowance Flat Rate (CAFR) introduced in 2012. On the other hand, the Southern Harbour region benefitted the least from this assistance, with only 40.7 beneficiaries (per 1,000 population). Pembroke and Mtarfa (both 8.5 per cent) were the localities registering the highest percentage of CAFR beneficiaries while Cospicua (1.7 per cent) and Vittoriosa (1.9 per cent) benefitted the least from this measure. In comparison to 2008, all six regions registered an increase in CAFR recipients, with the Northern Harbour region (+20.0 per cent) recording the biggest rise. When taking into account both CA and CAFR, Xgħajra (17.5 per cent) is the locality with the largest rate of recipients whereas Mdina (5.5 per cent) reported the lowest rate. Taking into consideration contributory retirement pensions, 12.9 per cent of the whole population obtained one of these benefits in 2012. The Southern Harbour region benefitted the most, registering 145.6 recipients (per 1,000 population), while the Northern region was the area with the least number of residents on retirement benefits, 101.6 persons (per 1,000 population). Compared to 2004, a rise in pensioners was recorded in each region, the largest being a 62.0 per cent increase in the South Eastern region. In 2012, Mdina (32.8 per cent) and Floriana (20.8 per cent) had the two highest rates of retirement benefits claimants, ahead of Tas-Sliema (19.8 per cent) which in 2004 had contained the largest percentage of pensioners. Pembroke (53.3 recipients per 1,000 population) had the lowest rate of retirement beneficiaries in both 2004 and 2008, but surpassed Mtarfa (49.5 recipients per 1,000 population) in 2012. In 2012 there were 4,945 persons receiving an invalidity benefit, or a 46.9 per cent decline compared to the corresponding beneficiaries in 2004. Gozitans benefitted the most from these benefits with 25.4 claimants (per 1,000 population), as was the case for both 2004 and 2008. In spite of this, Gozo recorded the largest decrease in the number of beneficiaries, by 19.4 beneficiaries per 1,000 population from 2004. Xewkija and Għasri, with 35.9 and 28.2 beneficiaries per 1,000 population respectively, benefitted the most from invalidity benefits while Swieqi (3.3 claimants) and Mtarfa (5.8 claimants) benefitted the least. Each year, a set of benefits related to Social Assistance are also paid out. These benefits mainly assist people searching for employment or unable to work due to a medical condition, with the added condition that the claimants satisfy means and capital resources tests for the previous year. During 2012 a total of 17,893 obtained some form of Social Assistance, a 3.0 per cent rise from 2004. The Southern Harbour region benefitted the most, with 67.3 beneficiaries per 1,000 population, while the Western region had the least ratio of claimants to region population, at 2.4 per cent. In 2012, Cospicua (15.4 per cent) and Valletta (13.9 per cent) had the highest proportions of beneficiaries to residents while Swieqi (12.6 per cent) and Mdina (12.8 per cent) were the least to benefit from some form of Social Assistance. The Supplementary Allowance (SPA), targeting low-income households, was another benefit taken into consideration in this study. The Southern Harbour region accounted for the highest rate of Supplementary Allowance beneficiaries, with 9.4 per cent of its 2012 population. On the contrary, the

ix

Northern region recorded the lowest percentage of claimants (3.8 per cent). During the nine-year period all six regions registered a decline in the number of beneficiaries, with Gozo and Comino, recording the biggest drop (21.4 per cent). Nevertheless, there were some localities which experienced an increase in the number of SPA claimants in 2012 in comparison to 2004. In particular, Pembroke (+61.3 per cent), Ħ’Attard (+35.6 per cent) and St. Paul’s Bay (+32.3 per cent) recorded relatively significant increases. On the other hand, Għasri (-56.5 per cent), Mdina (-52.9 per cent) and San Lawrenz (-35.8 per cent) reported the largest declines. Overall, there was a rise in the number of social security benefits claimants, from 133,774 beneficiaries in 2004 to 157,016 in 2012. In other words, 37.3 per cent of the population was in receipt of at least one type of social benefit in 2012. The Northern Harbour region accommodated the largest share of beneficiaries, at 29.3 per cent. On the contrary, Gozo and Comino had the smallest percentage of claimants, with only 7.7 per cent residing in that region. Three regions (Southern Harbour, Northern Harbour and Gozo and Comino) recorded a higher number of beneficiaries than the national average. Valletta (51.2 per cent) and Floriana (50.5 per cent) registered the highest ratios of beneficiaries to residents, with more than half their communities receiving some form of social benefit. Swieqi (245.9 beneficiaries per 1,000 population) and Iklin (280.3 beneficiaries per 1,000 population) reported the lowest rates. In terms of expenditure, the 2012 average expenditure per beneficiary was €4,753. Tas-Sliema registered the highest expenditure, with an average of €6,473 per claimant, while Mtarfa beneficiaries recorded the lowest expense, standing at €2,759 per beneficiary in 2012.

Methodology Actual Beneficiaries: The actual number of beneficiaries for a particular social benefit in a reference year, for a particular locality or region. It is also represented as per 1,000 of population. Actual Beneficiaries per 1,000 population = (1,000 * Number of Beneficiaries Region or Locality)/Total Population Region or Locality. Expected Beneficiaries: The expected number of beneficiaries for a particular social benefit in a reference year, for a particular locality or region. The expected number is calculated using the national average number of beneficiaries. National Average Number of Beneficiaries = (Number of Benefit Beneficiaries/Total Population) Expected Beneficiaries per Locality or Region = (National Average Number of Beneficiaries *Population

Region or Locality). Ratio of Actual/Expected: This ratio shows whether the locality or region is below or above the average number of national beneficiaries. A ratio above 1 indicates that the region or locality has a higher number of beneficiaries than the national average. A ratio below 1 indicates that the region or locality has a lower number of beneficiaries than the national average. The ratio can be calculated by dividing the Actual Number of Beneficiaries by the Expected Number of Beneficiaries. Percentage Share of Beneficiaries: The number of beneficiaries residing in a locality as a percentage of total beneficiaries. A person who receives more than one benefit is counted once. This is only applicable for the last table in this publication. Population: The total number of persons living in the Maltese Islands. Expenditure: The amount of expenditure incurred on a particular benefit accruing to particular region (beneficiaries residing abroad are not included). Total Expenditure: The total amount of expenditure covering all social benefits plus the contributory and non-contributory bonus accruing to a particular locality (beneficiaries residing abroad are not included). Expenditure per Beneficiary: The amount of expenditure incurred per locality divided by the number of unique beneficiaries residing in that locality. Notes:

i. Beneficiaries are grouped according to their ID card number. If a person received a particular benefit more than once in a calendar year, the records show one beneficiary.

ii. Numbers of beneficiaries do not include Maltese persons living abroad. iii. Expenditure amounts for one person in a region are not shown. iv. The total benefits expenditure does not match with the Treasury’s Departmental Accounting
