Maltese divorce referendum, 2011

A referendum on divorce was held in Malta on 28 May 2011. Voters were asked whether they approved of a new law to introduce allow divorces, as at that time, Malta was one of only three countries in the world (along with the Philippines and the Vatican City)〔 in which divorce was not permitted.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Malta to hold divorce referendum in May (AFP) )〕 The proposal was approved by 53% of voters, resulting in a law allowing divorce under certain conditions being enacted later in the year.
==Background==
A private member's bill was tabled in the House of Representatives by Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, a Nationalist Member of Parliament.〔(Motion No. 206 – Private Members Bill – Civil Code (Amendt) Bill – (1st Reading) – Presented by Hon Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando MP and Hon Evarist Bartolo MP (the Eleventh Parliament) )〕 The text of the bill, which had been changed twice, did not provide for the holding of a referendum. This was eventually provided for through a separate Parliamentary resolution under the Referenda Act authorising a facultative, non-binding referendum to be held.
The Catholic Church in Malta encouraged a "no" vote through a pastoral letter issued on the Sunday before the referendum day. Complaints were made that religious pressure was being brought to bear upon voters.〔 Around 8 per cent of marriages in Malta are already annulled by the Catholic Church.
