"Tourism, which accounts for 10% of GDP and 12% of total employment, is the European Union’s third most important socio-economic activity. Under the Treaty of Lisbon (Article 195 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU)), the Union is now competent to complement and coordinate the actions of Member States in the field of tourism. The European Commission’s communication of June 2010 listed 21 planned actions to make the sector more competitive, including: the promotion of sustainable, responsible and high-quality tourism; facilitating sound business management by introducing European labels and encouraging projects and networks in the sector.
By voting for this report, we have welcomed the Commission’s strategy and called for integrated measures to promote tourism in the Union further using the European label, and increase the visibility, quality, competitiveness, accessibility and diversification of the sector, while respecting subsidiarity and the environment. In the meantime, enjoy your travels around Europe!"@en1
