"I should like to thank the Commissioner for his response to the question. I have three follow-up points in relation to what you have said.
Firstly, with regard to sustainable tourism, obviously tourism is best dealt with where you have human populations. Therefore maintaining people in rural areas and in peripheral areas of the European Union is a better way of encouraging more tourism to those areas. On that particular point, would a proposal with regard to the worldwide marketing of the European Union as a tourist destination be considered – not necessarily funded or put in place, but just considered?
Secondly, can we utilise already existing airline hubs to ensure that peripheral areas can be serviced into those areas as well? The European Commission has already given approval for marketing support to small regional airports because of their importance in creating tourism and economic development.
There is a necessity and an urgency with regard to ensuring that those people who make investments in the tourism product and the tourism area are given the necessary back-up marketing and structural supports from the European Union programmes, which are sometimes denied them because they have already made capital investments themselves."@en1
