Below follows Atrish Sanchez's 2024 Budget Address:
Madam Speaker,
I rise today to deliver my first Budget address. It is with great honour that I do so, and I take this opportunity to once again thank the people of Gibraltar for this great privilege. As I rise, I look around and see four women MPs in this Parliament. While this represents progress in representation from the past, our Parliament still ranks below global and, most certainly, European averages in terms of representing women and minorities.
