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”).
The Government says that there are a small number of employees in the Care Agency working on fixed term contracts which are coming to an end and which will not be extended beyond expiry.
Following the announcement of Michael Llamas QC’s post as Attorney General designate, the Gibraltar Chamber of Commerce has welcomed the fact that a Gibraltarian has been appointed to such an important position claiming that it is ‘a reflection of the quality of Gibraltar’s home-grown talent’.
