    A Guide to Brexit Terminology This glossary has been designed to explain some of the key terms used in relation to Brexit. At the end of the glossary are links to additional resources and originals of key documents. The Glossary is not designed to be an exhaustive list and the authors hope that you find the explanations of key terms helpful. The UK which voted to join the EU had a different constitution to the UK that voted to leave the EU. This is reflected by some of the terminology used in the glossary and the inclusion of reference to the legislatures in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The referendum was authorised and conducted under the European Union Referendum Act 2015. It is advisory because Parliament is sovereign and because the Act contained no enabling legislation. Enabling provisions are ones which explicitly state that Parliament is legally bound to implement the outcome of the referendum. Hence, Parliament was not legally obliged to enact the outcome of the Brexit referendum. In contrast, for countries with codified constitutions, the outcome of a referendum ‘may’, in some instances bind both parliament and the government to implement its result. In Britain, however, with an uncodified constitution, it is possible for the government to promise in advance that it would respect the result, but that promise would be only political and not legally binding as parliament cannot be bound be a previous parliament; it can change its mind.

Alasdair Pinkerton (Royal Holloway, University of London) Matthew C. Benwell (Newcastle University) In June 2016, the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. Perhaps the most memorable result was the first to be declared – not only because of the enormity of the consensus expressed, but also because, somewhat counter intuitively, the result came from outside the United Kingdom altogether. Voters in the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar—a rocky Mediterranean promontory, ceded to Great Britain by Spain in 1713— expressed an overwhelming 96% support for remaining within the European Union; the single largest majority of any of the returning areas in the EU referendum (Garcia, 2016). The Gibraltar result was a direct reflection of the critical importance of the EU for the lives, livelihoods and future prosperity of Gibraltar’s

  • Income Tax Office
    International Agreement on Taxation and the Protection of Financial Interests between the Kingdom of Spain and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland regarding Gibraltar (the “International Agreement”) 30 March 2021 Following the approval of the International Agreement by the Gibraltar Parliament, HM Government of Gibraltar has published the necessary regulations for this to enter into force. The purpose of this circular is to provide due notification of the requirements and obligations imposed under the International Agreement. Pursuant to Article 2(2)(d), the Gibraltar Income Tax Office is required to provide the designated Spanish tax authorities with information in relation to the persons charged with effective management and the legal beneficial owners of any Gibraltar-based legal person, entity or other legal structure or arrangement that is within scope of either of the following residency rules included in Article 2(2)(a) of the International Agreement. The rules are: Article 2(2)(a)(iii) The majority of the natural persons in charge of effective management are tax resident in Spain; or Article 2(2)(a)(iv) The majority of the interests in the capital or equity, voting or profit-sharing rights are under the direct or indirect control of either natural persons who are tax residents in Spain or legal persons, entities and other legal structures or arrangements linked to tax residents in Spain. The purpose of sharing this information is to establish the nexus to residency only in Gibraltar for tax purposes. In order to shield business from these rules, the International Agreement contains a safeguard which allows such legal persons, entities and other legal structures or arrangements to retain their residency only in Gibraltar, provided that they can demonstrate sufficient physical presence and business and economic operations in and from Gibraltar.

Edward Caruana Dingli (1876-1950) Chev.Edward Caruana Dingli was born in Valletta, Malta of a family of artists in 1876. In 1898, he was commissioned in the Royal Malta Artillery. He studied art under the celebrated Guze Cali (1846-1930) and at theBritish Academy in Rome, Italy. He excelled himself as a painter of Maltese landscape and folklore. Edward Caruana Dingli is the twentieth century painter many Maltese are likeliest to know by name and by fame, and some of his works have long attained iconic status. So highly regarded was he in his own lifetime that in the 1920s he was utilized by the officials responsible for the marketing of the fledgling tourist industry, and in fact the colourful images of Malta and of Maltese people he produced created what contemporary managers would call “branding” for Malta. 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER – JANUARY 2014 ________________________________________________________________________________________ WE FULLY AGREE WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A MALTESE CULTURAL INSTITUE Many Maltese are now resident in foreign countries, resulting in an urgent need for the promotion of Maltese culture in these countries.

  • Book Launched About Gibraltar's Role During
    PRESS RELEASE No: 682/2018 Date: 9th November 2018 Book Launched about Gibraltar’s Role During WW1 The Deputy Chief Minister Dr Joseph Garcia this morning launched the book “Putting Cargoes Through: The US Navy at Gibraltar During the First World War 1917-1919”. The press launch took place at the John Mackintosh Hall in the presence of Professor John B Hattendorf, who is Professor Emeritus of Maritime History at the US Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. The original work was written by the commander of US Naval Forces stationed at Gibraltar at that time, Vice Admiral Albert P Niblack. That typescript was discovered by Professor Hattendorf who edited it and added an introduction. Dr Garcia said that the timing of the launch could not have been more relevant. It was happening in Gibraltar, the subject matter of the book, in an exhibition room dedicated to the role that Gibraltar played during the First World War. It also comes two days before Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday, in a year which marks the centenary of the end of World War One. He said that he was delighted to welcome the Professor to Gibraltar and to launch the book, following their first meeting at a session of the Gibraltar-American Council in New York two years ago. Professor Hattendorf will be discussing the book during the Literary Festival on Thursday. In the meantime, as part of the Government’s programme of events, there will be a projection of a poppy symbol on the Moorish Castle to honour those who died during World War One and in other conflicts.
