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”).
Gibraltar's Head Coach, Jeff Wood, has selected a 28 man squad ahead of the upcoming European Qualifiers at home to the Republic of Ireland on the 4th September and then away in Poland on the 7th September.
The Self Determination for Gibraltar Group (SDGG) would like to inform the general public that they will be manning a stand at the Piazza so that Gibraltarians can sign the National Day banner.
The SDGG takes careful note of the concerns raised by the ESG and GONHS about the balloons that are released as part of the National Day festivities, and the impact it has on the environment.
Gibraltar’s ‘official quarter’, that small stretch of road that separates the Chief Minister’s Office at Convent Place from the Governor’s residence at The Convent, has become a focal point of tourist interest during the summer months. Crowds of day-trippers and sightseers often jam-pack the area, especially when a cruise liner is in port, taking photographs of the buildings, their curiosity aroused and wanting to know more about the important business that goes on inside.
