Press Release
HM GOVERNMENT OF GIBRALTAR Office of the Minister for Tourism, Commercial Affairs, Public Transport and the Port Suite 631, Europort Gibraltar PRESS RELEASE No. 658/2013 Date: 18th September 2013 Gibraltar on track to obtain 100% WI-FI connectivity at tourist locations Minister for Tourism, Commercial Affairs, Public Transport and the Port, Neil Costa MP has announced that most of Gibraltar’s beaches, tourist sites, hotels and places of interest now have WI-FI Hotspots up and running, part of an ambitious project by the Gibraltar Government to provide 100% internet coverage of these areas throughout the Rock. The latest areas to obtain outdoor online connectivity are Moorish Castle, Europa Point, the Great Siege Tunnels and the Gibraltar Museum. This amenity will be available to the local population and visitors whose tourist experience of the Rock will be greatly enhanced with this new service. Wi-Fi Hotspots in Gibraltar now cover 80% of the main public locations with the latest four sites having been incorporated in the last fortnight, bringing the total to 18 fully operational locations. The initiative was first announced by Minister Costa in his Budget address of 2012, with further detail being made public in 2013. The Gibraltar Tourist Board has also taken a leading role in the project with the technical groundwork carried out by local telecommunications provider Gibtelecom. Work on the five remaining sites is currently under way and it is expected that the project will be completed before the end of the year. Additional sites are being planned by Gibtelecom with further enhancements to the service in 2014. -

PRESS RELEASE No: 492/2021 Date: 28th June 2021 Statement by the Minister for Equality the Hon. Samantha Sacramento MP - Pride Month 2021 Today, 28th June is the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots or Stonewall Uprising as it is also called, an event that happened in New York in 1969. Many people may already know the meaning of this historic event and what its eventual consequences were. However, I think it is still important to repeat this for the benefit of people who do not know, so that they can appreciate the importance of Pride Month in Gibraltar and why our Government has introduced different initiatives to commemorate it. In the early hours of the 28th June in 1969, the New York Police Department raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay club in the Greenwich Village in New York. During this raid the Police roughly mistreated and removed patrons from the club. As a result, there were 6 days of violent clashes with the police. This event proved to be a catalyst for gay rights movements across the USA and in other places around the world. It is evident that LGBTQ+ people have suffered a great deal in the past and continue to be victimised today in many parts of the world. This year, to mark the start of the Pride Month, HM Government flew LGBTQ+ Pride flags at different locations, including the land frontier and at No 6 Convent Place on the 1st June. The flags are again flying today to commemorate the Stonewall Riots. The Moorish Castle was also brightly lit up with the rainbow colours on the 1st of June and again will be lit up this evening. -

PRESS RELEASE No: 544/2021 Date: 21st July 2021 Budget Address 2021-2022 - Deputy Chief Minister, The Hon Dr Joseph Garcia CMG MP Mr Speaker, INTRODUCTION It is good to see this House meeting today in order to debate the Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure. The events of the last fifteen months have shown that nothing can be taken for granted. Not even this traditional, set-piece annual fixture. Mr Speaker, this is my 23rd budget. Thirteen have been in Opposition. Ten as a member of the Government - one of which failed to materialise in the usual way as a consequence of the pandemic. COVID-19 Mr Speaker, we have seen how a virus first detected in China at the end of 2019 has now taken millions of lives, destroyed families everywhere, decimated economies across the planet and quite simply turned the world upside down. Deputy Chief Minister • HM Government of Gibraltar • 6 Convent Place • Gibraltar GX11 1AA t +350 20059267 f +350 20059271 e [email protected] w www.gibraltar.gov.gi The pandemic has challenged everything that we took for granted. The simple right to leave our homes. The right to meet who we like when we want to. The right to gather in hundreds or thousands. The ability to travel smoothly and simply. The right to open the doors of our businesses. Our relationship with our loved ones and the elderly in particular. These multiple challenges have complicated our existence. They have thrust to the forefront of the debate the delicate balancing act between freedom and the protection of life.
