GSD Statement on Fishing Dispute:
‘It is very convenient for the GSLP-Liberal Government to blame the previous GSD Government for its own failings on a wide range of issues and for the real mess they are getting Gibraltar into. This is no more evident than the latest tirade Press Release on the fishing controversy.
It is not true that the Leader of the Opposition has undermined the position of the Government in the Spanish press. The Leader of the Opposition has simply restated in an interview with Europa Sur the GSD position in a careful and measured way. The interview is posted www.gsdlive.com for everyone to read and come to their own conclusion.
The Opposition is calling upon the Government to clarify its position on the funding of non-evidence based complementary therapies, and to state what eligibility criteria the Minister for Health employs when determining the therapies which will be subsidised by the GHA.
