The Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo, today met with the Foreign Secretary, Rt Hon Lord David Cameron, at the Foreign Office in London in order to discuss the outstanding issues and matters in the ongoing negotiation with the European Union in relation to Gibraltar.
Action for Housing have made public a letter sent to the Minister for Housing:
Dear Minister,
In April 2021 we both appeared on a GBC radio programme, presented by Ros Astengo, in which you stated that you had enough housing stock to meet the needs of all those applicants on the Government Housing waiting list(s). At the time, we put this assertion very much in doubt, given the long delays in accommodating those on the waiting list.
The Government have issued a statement following the GSD’s recent press releases and says the GSD rely on “empty buzz words to make hypothetical arguments they know they can’t back up in the real world”.
The Gibraltar Fire and Rescue Service are conducting test exercises to trial different high reach firefighting and rescue assets from two potential suppliers.
