Sad news of the loss of Chris White, former GSD candidate in the 2015 election under my predecessor Daniel Feetham & who made a big contribution to Gibraltar tax legislation & fiscal work over many years. Our condolences to his family

When GSLP piecemeal approach shows Minister has no real plan. Rooke: an elderly home that was never supposed to be run by GHA will be full from day one. Joelle Ladislaus giving bed capacity issue & the pressure on Hospital, staff & families some real perspective @JoelleLadislaus
Bed capacity at St Bernard's Hospital: A Government exercise in silencing the truth behind the numbers.
In my Opinion for the @GibChronicle by @JoelleLadislaus 👇🏼

The GSD has questioned the reasons behind the Government's changes to procurement regulations which would allow it to award multi-million pound concessions without tender.

What’s behind the change of procurement rules that allows Govt to award BIG commercial CONCESSIONS to people WITHOUT tender. What does GSLP intend; which contract; who would benefit & why? Govt need to be clear on what they intend. Was Principal Auditor criticism meaningless?
What is behind the change of rules that would allow the Government to award multi-million pound concessions without tender. What is it that the Government intend and to whom do they intend to give a concession without tender? Who would benefit from such a transaction and why?

There is a need for reform of police governance which secures independence & oversight. In the meantime people shouldn’t be told a false story by a GSLP Govt desperate to recreate a narrative of the reasons why changes are needed

Police reform too important for it to be hijacked by Mr Picardo mischaracterising reasons for reform or Inquiry findings. Inquiry found he attempted to interfere in criminal investigation, didn’t contain conflicts of interest, acted in a “sinister” way & abused his position. If Inquiry found reasons for reform it’s largely cos of his actions. This latest misrepresentation is just more subtle than when they claimed “vindication” only to then judicially review the same report. Nothing will change because they’ll protect each other
It is extraordinary for the Chief Minister in his GBC interview to present the White Paper on Police Governance Reform as having been necessary because the Police didn’t work well and was not “answerable or transparent” or because a former Commissioner lied to him.

When there’s positive photos to be taken following “operational” decisions by GHA the Minister is there🙄. When there’s criticism to be faced…it’s an “operational” decision nothing to do with me….but what about the underlying political policy questions? Those are for Government

St Bernard’s bed capacity not fit for growing population, says GSD
gbc.gi/news/st-bernards-bed-…
The Government’s explanations on why some elderly patients found themselves taken to the maternity wardwhen Minister Arias Vasquez has repeatedly given assurances on sufficiency of bed capacity fall very short.

Partial GSLP u-turn on over 55s residency rules is welcome but still falls short. This has been a poorly thought through policy with little consultation & it’ll have the effect of increasing our econ dependence on Spain & discouraging inward investment. We’ll reverse bad policy
