Eastside Project, Caiman Re-homed, Commanding Officer, McGrail Hearings, Gibraltar Women vs Faroe Islands

Following an on-site visit last week, the Eastside Project has received the go-ahead for the next phase of the marina development from the Development and Planning Commission. However, there's still a condition: The approval is subject to remodelling the revetment at the end of the sea wall to reduce its visual impact. The Environmental Safety Group continue to have reservations about the development: we spoke to Janet Howitt.Yesterday GBC News reported on the discovery of a caiman, a reptile from the alligator family, that was reportedly being kept as a pet and has now been re-homed at the Alameda Wildlife Park. It has generated a lot of interest, with people wanting to know how it got here and what will happen to it. Alameda Wildlife Park's Vanda Marnato told us how the caiman is doing in its new home.It’s been 100 days since the new Commanding Officer of the Gibraltar Regiment took up his post. Lieutenant Colonel John Pitto took over from the previous CO, Lieutenant Colonel Matt Moore in December last year. At the time he said he was immensely proud to be taking up the post, but how does he feel a few months in?The McGrail Inquiry hearings are due to take place over the next three days at the Garrison Library. Chairman Sir Peter Openshaw will open the hearings tomorrow, followed by evidence from Assistant Commissioner Cathal Yeats and Commissioner Richard Ullger. GBC will be following proceedings with live coverage, albeit with a ten minute delay for legal reasons. Jonathan Sacramento has been at the Garrison Library ahead of tomorrow’s hearing.And, Gibraltar's women are on the field again this evening, this time facing the Faroe Islands in their fourth game in the UEFA Nations League.
