Following the publication by the Chamber of Commerce of a document entitled ‘Agenda for Change’ where legislative reforms in employment law have been proposed to the Government of Gibraltar, Unite the Union, The Gibraltar General and Clerical Association, and the Gibraltar Teacher’s Association have come together to voice their initial reaction.
The GSD opposition is calling on the Government to set out the measures it has taken to ensure the safety and integrity of parts of Europa Road for the use of the new buses, which, the Government itself had previously explained, were too heavy for safe use along that route.
The Government says it notes Mr Reyes’ response on the issue of lighting at Laguna Estate.
The Government says it has received a proposal from the Cross Frontier Group for the creation of a European Group for Territorial Cooperation. The Government is favourably studying the proposal and the implications of the application for the creation of such a body.
The Opposition Spokesman for Housing, Edwin Reyes, wishes to thank the pertinent Government Department / Authority / Contractor for installing additional lighting at the temporary entrance to Resolution House in Laguna Estate, despite the Minister for Housing having originally denied there were any Health & Safety concerns as expressed by tenants. The provision of more lights, as from Saturday, enhancing the access area to Resolution House is appreciated by residents in the block of flats concerned, says the GSD. Several tenants have personally thanked the Opposition for their input in helping to bring this matter to the Housing Ministry’s attention, “more so since their own course of actions had failed to achieve this.”
