Sep 03 - Spanish Agencies Involved In More Incursions
A Spanish SVA patrol boat and helicopter again entered Gibraltar waters and airspace in the early hours of yesterday without making contact with the Royal Gibraltar Police and HM Customs in Gibraltar. The Government, reacting to the news, said that this “flies in the face of the assurances which were reportedly given by Spain to the United Kingdom and the need to ensure fluid communication and cooperation between the law enforcement agencies of Gibraltar and Spain.”
The Ministry of Business and Employment and the Royal Gibraltar Post Office (“RGPO”) is pleased to announce a new collaboration between Her Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar and Monarch Airlines. On 6 July, as a direct result of a meeting held in the UK between Minister Costa, David Ledger (Chief Executive Officer of RGPO) and Monarch Airlines cargo services agent, the RGPO started a trial service for extra cargo space out of Gibraltar.
The Government says the latest statement by the Opposition on the level of public consultation that existed on the North Mole Power Station project is complete nonsense.
The GSD Opposition says it entirely anticipated the Government’s response on concerns about the processes associated with the North Mole power station. The party says that, “in line with Government’s previous responses it is long winded and largely irrelevant.”
The Chief Minister Fabian Picardo and the Mayor of San Roque, Juan Carlos Ruiz Boix met for an official meeting at No6, earlier today.
