	Government of GibraltarPress Office
		For too long now Spain has been allowed to equate the decolonisation of Gibraltar with her anachronistic claim to our Sovereignty, and, worse still, to add distortion to the confusion of principles, by maintaining that because there is a sovereignty claim by her, the self determination rights of a colonial people are cancelled and overridden.
		October 1970 states that "The territory of a colony or other non self-governing territory, has under the Charter, a status separate and distinct from the territory of the State Administering it." It is therefore a violation of the UN Charter to seek to treat a colony as a region of its administering power.
		The people of Gibraltar, once again, wait to see whether our intervention this year will have some effect, or whether, as in past years, it is followed by passing the same old, tired and ineffectual annual resolution.
