The Government says it notes, “with disappointment”, the European Parliament’s objection, today, to the entry into force of the European Commission’s decision to remove certain jurisdictions, including Gibraltar, from the EU’s list of ‘high-risk’ third-countries with strategic deficiencies as regards anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (“AML/CFT”).
It is clear that the more the Opposition talk about LNG storage, the more obvious it is to everyone that they simply do not know what they are talking about, according to the Government.
Private Conor McGinn, 18, is the latest Royal Gibraltar Regiment recruit to Pass Out at the Infantry Training Centre in Catterick.
Private McGinn has done exceptionally well throughout his training and was awarded the prestigious title of ‘Soldier’s Soldier’ during his Pass Out Parade. The award often means so much to a young soldier because it is voted by the other recruits in his platoon.
The suggestion by the Chief Minister that the GSD is advocating a return to the 1999 Agreement is, according to the Opposition, “absolutely nonsensical and another attempt to divert attention away from the fact that he has not kept his express manifesto promise that his Government would put an end to net fishing in BGTW ‘immediately’”.
