May 25 - GSD Investigating Air Quality Concerns Following WHO Report

Written by YGTV Team on 25 May 2016.

The GSD says it is looking further into the matter of the poor air quality being experienced in Gibraltar as revealed by the World Health Organisation and reported by GBC yesterday.

Reacting to the report, GSD Shadow Minister for the Environment, Trevor Hammond said:

“It is deeply concerning that Gibraltar should not only feature in this report but should be bottom of the list compared with the worst towns in the United Kingdom. We are looking at the available information further and will be issuing a more comprehensive statement next week but there is no question how serious this matter can be, as poor air quality has a direct link with the incidence of lung disease and allergies.”
