It existed between 21 September 1964 and 13 December 1974, when Malta became a republic within the Commonwealth. When British rule ended in 1964, the Malta Independence Act 1964 transformed the British Crown Colony of Malta into an independent Commonwealth realm, with the British monarch, Elizabeth II, becoming Queen of Malta (''Reġina ta' Malta'' in Maltese) in addition to being Sovereign of a number of other Commonwealth realms. The monarch's constitutional roles were delegated to the Governor-General of Malta. The following Governors-General held office in Malta between 1964 and 1974: #Sir Maurice Henry Dorman (21 September 1964 – 4 July 1971) #Sir Anthony Mamo (4 July 1971 – 13 December 1974) The following held office as Prime Minister (and head of government) of the State of Malta during this period: #George Borg Olivier September 21, 1964 – 21 June 1971 #Dom Mintoff 21 June 1971 – 13 December 1974 Elizabeth II visited Malta in 1967 (14–17 November).
