lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it is a known fact that the European Union is the number one tourist destination in the world. Tourism accounts for 4% of GDP in the EU, 2 million undertakings are involved in it, and it pays for approximately 8 million jobs. As such, Mr Simpson’s report on the Commission’s proposal for a directive revising the legal basis for European statistics on tourism is important and comes at a crucial time for the future of tourism, given that the economic crisis and the recent military operations in the Mediterranean represent a threat to tourism and, at the same time, create conditions for diverting tourism to safe destinations in Europe. We call on the Commission, in addition to collating statistics, to incorporate all measures relating to tourism and the numerous tourism-related sectors, so that we can ultimately upgrade the tourism product. In Greece, tourism is a pillar of the economy, representing 7% of GDP and providing 700 000 jobs."@en1
