Mar 14 - PDP Calls on Government to Prioritise on Power Supply
The PDP is extremely concerned with the rise in power cuts experienced over the last few weeks. The Party notes the Government’s assurances last autumn that the power supply issues, inherited from the previous administration would be resolved with the opening of the new power station at the north western end of the North Mole.
The Party insists that Tuesday’s issue further highlights the ‘inherent problems with not only the supply of energy but also of its distribution. It is clear this “temporary” measure is not providing the results this Government had promised. The GSLP/Liberals have now been in power for well over a year and seem incapable of governing without reference to their predecessors failings. Everyone in Gibraltar knows that the GSD failed in 16 years to secure a reliable modern power supply but there comes a point when this Government must stop blaming others and assume responsibility.’
