In response to the recent Government statement, the Chairman of the GSD, Trevor Hammond said: "I am passionate about the safety of our community and the people in it, both in a professional and political capacity. Nothing is more important to me and my sole interest in LNG in Gibraltar is whether it is safe for Gibraltar. I will always challenge anything that places our homes, schools, hospital and people at risk. What is clear is that not everyone is satisfied that the GSLP Government has done its due diligence on their LNG storage and bunkering proposal. The GSD will do whatever it takes to keep our country safe and refuse to let anyone suggest that the Lloyd's report wasn't in our national interest. These press releases only serve to distract from the real issue which is the safety of Gibraltar and its people.
