The concern, according to the party, is that its sudden closure has left a shortage in room capacity which may lead to price increases which would have to be passed on by agents to customers. The net effect would be to reduce our ability to compete in this sector at a time when stiff competition is already being felt from the Port of Algeciras. The GSD asks the Government to explain whether it took these industry concerns into consideration when it bought and closed the Queen's Hotel and what plans it has in place in order to ensure these reasonable concerns by the industry are alleviated.
