Abstract
Malta's establishment of a Statistics Office in 1947 occurred amid political instability and an economic depression. The official compilation and timely publication of statistics by a central government agency-made possible by the introduction of tabulating equipment soon after the Office's creation-proved invaluable for the development of a planned economy despite initial skepticism.
