The Malta Gay Rights Movement (MGRM) has welcomed the publication by the EU's Fundamental Rights Agency of a report on Homophobia and Discrimination on Grounds of Sexual Orientation in the EU Member States.

This report concluded that the legal framework in Malta is inadequate in addressing discrimination against the local gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.

Another important conclusion of this report relates to the rights of transgender individuals to have their documents changed to reflect their new gender and to marry a person of the opposite sex.
