Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office written question – answered at on 18 September 2024.
Lord Kempsell
Conservative
To ask His Majesty's Government what is their position on the sovereignty of Gibraltar, and what communications they have had recently with the government of Spain in this regard.
Lord Collins of Highbury
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office), Deputy Leader of the House of Lords, Lord in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)
The UK Government is confident of British sovereignty over the whole of Gibraltar, including British Gibraltar Territorial Waters. The UK Government will never enter into arrangements under which the people of Gibraltar would pass under the sovereignty of another State against their freely and democratically expressed wishes. We have not, and will never enter into a process of sovereignty negotiations with which Gibraltar is not content. We regularly make this position clear to Spain.
