Brexit: Spain and Gibraltar – Welcoming Address

Abstract

This is the third time that the University of Gibraltar has hosted sessions of the annual Cursos de Verano of the University of Cadiz in San Roque. The third, already, since the United Kingdom’s referendum on continued membership of the European Union. They say that time flies when you are having fun! I would prefer to say that time flies, full stop - and we really are approaching crunch time in this historic process. It is a pleasure for me to welcome you all to Gibraltar today on behalf of the Government. Welcome in particular to our distinguished guests. I am Dr. Joseph Garcia, the Deputy Chief Minister of Gibraltar and also the Minister responsible for Brexit.
