The traditional term “Chancery” refers to the small team of diplomats who serve as the Ambassador’s closest collaborators.
The political chancery’s role is :
to inform the French government about the Maltese government’s policy, both domestic and foreign,
to explain and defend French foreign-policy decisions, notably to the Maltese Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
to participate in the organization of official visits by French ministers and government officials to Malta and
to strengthen Franco-Maltese bilateral relations.
The chancery at the French embassy in Malta is comprised of the Deputy Head of Mission who assists and stands in for the Ambassador in the exercise of his duties. When the Ambassador is absent, he acts on his behalf as the “Chargé d’Affaires".
