The CEO of Business and the OFT, John Paul Fa, commented: “The publication of these documents represent a crucial step towards our ongoing mission to refine Gibraltar’s business landscape. As we roll out our strategic goals, we remain deeply committed to transparency and progress, ensuring that our initiatives are clear and their impact measurable.”

The Minister for Health, Care and Business, the Hon Gemma Arias-Vasquez, said:: “With the release of these two documents, we aim to offer our business community a clear view of the upcoming enhancements we have planned. I am both determined and excited about the positive impact these changes will bring to our business environment. Gibraltar’s economy is directly tied to the health of our businesses and I will be giving business as a sector in itself the attention it rightly deserves.

“I would also like extend my gratitude to the different business representative groups in shaping our policies, and of course, the businesses whose performance and hard work is reflected in the data.”
