The Royal Gibraltar Police (RGP) investigation into the allegation that ‘whistle-blowers’ were incentivised to provide evidence to the McGrail Inquiry “has not uncovered any evidence that meets the threshold for criminal prosecution for Misconduct in Public Office.”
Following last night’s power outage, which struck the whole of Gibraltar at 3:22 am, the Gibraltar Electricity Authority has claimed that the issue was caused by an earth fault, ‘which caused the voltage and frequency to plummet, thus activating the falling frequency protection which load shedded all main feeders.’
Gibraltar’s newest artificial reef was the topic of discussion in a recent lecture at the University of Seville. Professor of Marine Biology, Jose Carlos Garcia Gomez explained that the hollow concrete blocks are designed to both attract fish and to prevent certain types of fishing in prohibited areas.
Europa Sur notes that the Professor detailed similar reefs that he had seen in Conil and Huelva, which acted as a deterrent to prevent trawlers from fishing less than six miles from the coast. Reefs are also present along the coasts of Malaga, Granada and Almeria.
According to an article published this morning on abc.es, the Spanish government plans to target Gibraltarian residents that have homes in Spain. According to the article, the government is targeting all those people who are registered in Gibraltar for fiscal reasons, but who have live in a property in Spain and don't pay local taxes.
According to the ABC's sources in the "Ministerio de Hacienda", the plan is directed at finding people that fiscally and legally own assets in Spain and to combat tobacco smuggling.
