Cinema Digitisation Scheme

A scheme to support the digital transition of cinemas in Malta and Gozo was announced in Budget 2014. The scheme aims also to increase the circulation and viewership of European audiovisual works and seeks to encourage further accessibility of audiovisual works to a wider public.

The Parliamentary Secretariat for Culture and Local Government, through the Culture and Audiovisual Unit, and in collaboration with the Ministry for Finance and the Creative Economy Working Group are responsible for the implementation of the Scheme.

The first deadline for applications is Thursday 12th December 2013. The scheme may be extended following the approval of the State Aid Monitoring Board and the publication of new State Aid regulations.
