In referendums held in 1967 and 2002, Gibraltarians ignored Spanish pressure and voted overwhelmingly to remain a British dependency.

    GHA MANAGER ACTS CONTRARY TO MINISTER’S POLICY
    SAYING OF THE WEEK If you can’t learn to do it well, you should learn to enjoy doing it badly. Print edition now on sale 50p The health of a sponsored patient is being put seriously at risk by the stubbornness of the Manager of the Gibraltar Health Authority, David McCutcheon, who is insisting that this patient should go through GHA procedures, as if she were a new patient, even though it is known that her condition is chronic and cannot be treated in Gibraltar. McCutcheon has taken it upon himself to do this even though the policy of the Government, as explained by Minister Yvette Del Agua in Parliament, is the exact opposite and even though the recommendations of an independent panel of doctors set up by the Ombudsman, Mario Hook, has found McCutcheon to be wrong. The following is an abbreviation of what each party has to say on the matter: Minister Del Agua Opposition Leader, Joe Bossano, asked the Minister in Parliament whether in cases where it was known that the patient still needed the treatment, whether she agreed that it was undesirable that treatment arranged by the UK should not be taken up because of the GHA’s system, this possibly being prejudicial to the patient. The Minister said the following: “Yes I agree with the Hon Member 100%. I have not heard of such a case happening and I certainly hope that it never does.

The two coasts are the West Side coast and the East Side Coast. The East Side coast enclose the urban areas of Catalan Bay and Sandy Bay.
