The GSD has reiterated its view that aspects of the residency policy are anti-British in effect and will push jobs to Spain.

It insists they are a dis-incentive to British inward investment and unpopular among the business sector and financial services operators.

A GSD Government would seek to reverse those aspects of the Residency policy. It says this can be done while also protecting public services from undue strain by a series of targeted residency and contribution obligations for new entrants where appropriate.
