Equality

The GSLP/Liberals was the first Government in Gibraltar’s history to create a Ministry for Equality in order to demonstrate our commitment towards equality in Gibraltar. The Hon. Samantha Sacramento is therefore Gibraltar’s first ever Minister for Equality, a role which she has proudly held and is dedicated to upholding equality principles and eliminating all forms of discrimination.
