Local Trade Union, Unite the Unite, along with Commissiones Abreras and Union General de Trabajadores of Andalucia, have agreed to ask their respective Governments for a series of meetings regarding the ‘escalating conflict’ and the Unions’ positions.
The Trade Union movement has expressed their concern over the deteriorating state of relations between Gibraltar and Spain, as well as its ‘repercussions upon their citizens and workers’.
Spain has allegedly insisted that it will take the fishing dispute in Gibraltar to the European Court of Justice, if Britain is not sanctioned by the EU Commission during their visit to the Frontier.
The statement was made by Agriculture and Environment Minister Manuel Arias Canete in Jerez de la Frontera last Friday. Spanish press reports that Madrid insists Gibraltar has violated EU laws by dropping the artificial reef into the bay.
Opposition party, the GSD, has explained that Care Agency Minister, Samantha Sacramento’s previous condemnation of the GSD’s plans for the new Alzheimer’s and Dementia facility is based entirely on room size.
The party notes, ‘this is nonsensical, when it is compared to statements made by Minister Cortes in July’s Parliament that he was satisfied with progress at the new Mental Health facility, where single rooms average a mere 7.5 square metres in size. The smallest room available measures just 5.46 square metres.’
