July 02 - Government Says: “No Government Or Savings Bank Loan To Sunborn”
The Government has replied to the accusations from the GSD published earlier today:
The latest statement by Mr Feetham in relation to the fantastic five star Sunborn Hotel demonstrates that he is unable to understand even his own questions in Parliament, let alone the Government’s very clear and unequivocal answers.
The Government can confirm – once again - that neither it nor the Gibraltar Savings Bank has made any investment in the fantastic five star Sunborn Hotel, which is what Mr Feetham asked about in Parliament.
The position is as clear now as when Mr Feetham was provided with answers in Parliament by the Chief Minister. There is no discrepancy whatsoever that requires clarification.
Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo, said: “I am very happy to confirm that the position is exactly as I have previously set out in Parliament. There is nothing whatsoever to clarify. In fact, if Mr Feetham is so concerned about the fanastic five star Sunborn Hotel, perhaps he should note that the firm that represents them is Hassans, of which he is a partner. The public may find that surprising, given how negative Mr Feetham seems to be about his own client’s project to bring this fantastic five star hotel to Gibraltar.”
