PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
DEMONSTRATIONS IN GIBRALTAR (18 March 2002)
Motion Details
That this House recognises the strength of feeling being demonstrated on the streets of Gibraltar in opposition to the statement of support for Anglo-Spanish negotiations at the recent Barcelona Summit; further deplores attempts to induce the people of Gibraltar to accept Spanish sovereignty with offers of European Union funding for infrastructure projects; commends the Chief minister, Peter Caruana, for rejecting such offers; and calls on the British Government, once again, to commit to recognising the wishes of the people of Gibraltar to remain British.
