"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I congratulate Mr Fidanza for the excellent work he has done. His report certainly contains excellent proposals and I am sure that the Commission will take them into serious consideration.
I am of the view that we should have a twin and integrated approach. On the one hand, we should be improving the image of European tourism in the eyes of the world through the promotion of our common heritage and on the other sustaining and enhancing as much as possible the individual nature of each Member State. An example for everyone would be the beaches of Italy, which are truly one of a kind and inimitable.
Therefore, I am in favour of introducing a European brand so long as national characteristics are promoted at the same time. Moving on to aspects of the internal market, I am very glad to note that the proposal to harmonise the accommodation classification system, which would surely enable quality standards to be raised and reinforcement of consumer protection, has been welcomed. Furthermore, the idea of creating a white list of tour operators, which was tabled by the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection but which, sadly, was not adopted in the report, should not, in my opinion, be rejected and I hope that in future it can be reconsidered."@en1
