SANCHEZ CALLS ON BRUSSELS TO INVESTIGATE GIB RECLAMATION PROJECTS
Mayor of La Linea Alejandro Sánchez yesterday presented a 100 page document to the European Parliament’s Petitions Committee in Brussels detailing an official complaint against the Rock’s reclamation projects. According to Sr Sánchez the paper “will show the damage to La Linea’s beaches given the proximity of these projects,” while noting the alleged absence or notification of any environmental impact assessment into the neighbouring coastline.
Additionally, Sr Sánchez also refers to other “hidden reclamation projects which will come to fruition soon,” that could have further effects “on the marine fauna, flora and environment.”

The complaint also calls for the setting up of a commission of investigation to establish whether there have been any breaches of EU laws by Gibraltar.
