I am not in a position to give the hon. Gentleman detailed answers to his questions. I am happy to write to him and give him the answers. If he has further questions, clearly we can consider the matter again on Report.
Overall, the clause ensures that the conditions for entitlement to be registered on the Gibraltar register
