The Government says it notes, “with disappointment”, the European Parliament’s objection, today, to the entry into force of the European Commission’s decision to remove certain jurisdictions, including Gibraltar, from the EU’s list of ‘high-risk’ third-countries with strategic deficiencies as regards anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (“AML/CFT”).
The Government and the Gibraltar Philatelic Bureau have issued a set of six Christmas stamps. The colourful set has been designed by local graphic designer Stephen Perera with the theme "Christmas Cookies".
