The Government notes the latest statement by the GSD on Elderly Residential Services and Mount Alvernia. The Minister for Economic Development, the Hon Sir Joe Bossano will answer these questions at the next session of Parliament as previously requested by the Opposition and in keeping with the parliamentary convention.

For that reason, the Government is not failing to provide transparency on this issue. The Government is simply complying with the relevant convention in Parliament which the GSD have previously complained the Government do not keep to if the Government provides public comment when their questions are pending. As usual the GSD damn the Government for doing or not doing just for the sake of damning the Government every time.
