Foreword Covering a land area of 67 square kilometres, Gozo is one of the smallest NUTS III regions in Europe in terms of population size. It has developed a distinct character and identity throughout the years, and this is also portrayed through official statistics, which go well beyond the statutory requirements of the European Commission regarding regions of a similar classification. This is amply demonstrated by the data presented in this compact publication. Gozo in Figures 2014 is in fact an enhancement on a similar publication launched two years ago. It is being published in a year when the National Statistics Office inaugurates a branch in Gozo to compile and widen the scope of regional statistics, under the auspices of the Malta Statistics Authority. This publication reflects the diversity of the Island, comparing facets of the Gozitan socio-economic fabric to the mainland. Statistical domains include the economy, demography, employment, business enterprises, private households, social protection, energy and water, waste, land and sea transport, culture, and rural characteristics. A section is dedicated to tourism, which is an important source of income for Gozo too. The NSO trusts that this publication will play a part in aiding policy makers and users to analyse strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, so that Gozo can continue to register social and economic progress in comparison with the rest of the country. My appreciation goes to Mr Manuel Tabone for compiling this useful and interesting publication, to the technical units which provided the data, and to the desktop support staff.

About the Artist Rachel Galea was born in 1973 and has established herself as an evocative painter of Gozitan landscapes. She strongly captures the visual aspect of her sources of inspiration, transforming them into dashes of colour and expressionistic movement. Rachel applies loose, broad brushstrokes and overlapping layers of paint to render the flat surface of the canvas into bold, three-dimensional interpretations of her subjects. For Rachel, the combined use of vibrant palette and versatile brushstrokes becomes the link between matter and spirit.

The NUTS is the territorial classification used in the compilation of regional accounts. The economic territory of a country can bedivided into regional territories and extra-regio territory. For the purpose of regional accounts, Malta is divided as follows:

Regional territory includes the region that is part of the geographic territory of a country and any free zones, including bondedwarehouses and factories under customs control in the region. Extra-regio territory is made up of parts of the economic territory of acountry that cannot be attached directly to a single region.
