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”).
Under the new 2014-2020 European Territorial Co-operation Programmes there will be an official launch seminar taking place in Santander, Spain on the 7th & 8th October 2015, to inaugurate the SUDOE Programme. Gibraltar represents the United Kingdom as the Member State in this Programme. The other participating countries are France, Portugal, Spain and Andorra.
