In this week’s programme, Justice4Patients files a claim with the Supreme Court of the Falkland Islands regarding the unauthorised access of patient medical records in 2021 and 2022. News from the Magistrate’s Court, the Chamber of Commerce continues to raise concerns over rising electricity costs, and MLA Jack Ford discusses housing issues, including the need to exclude private rental properties from the FIG pool.

The first ever focus group on the next phase of housing development also shares its outcomes, and green building advocates may have a new solution for insulation projects. Significant steps forward in safeguarding residents are set with the Domestic Abuse Ordinance coming into effect on 3rd February, and Maeve Daly-Llamosa is appointed as the new Director of Policy, Economy and Corporate Services for FIG.

After the break, Esther Bertram and Nula Knight become the first Falklands residents to swim across the Falklands Sound. We also revisit Penguin Awareness Day, look ahead to the Volleyball Club’s first international competition in April at Punta Arenas, and revisit Burns Night celebrations.
