lpv:spoken text	"I voted against this report as I feel it represents yet another encroachment into domestic affairs and further harmonisation of EU standards in an essential industry to all Member States. By introducing the accommodation classification system, the Commission are seeking to establish an international mark that endorses the EU to the detriment of regions and local economies. The same is true of the ‘European quality tourism label’ and a ‘European Tourism Card’. As far as I can see, there is no requirement for EU regulation on spa tourism, EU aid to rehabilitate tourist areas in decline or the composition of new directives on package tours. I am strongly against an EU-wide integrated strategy as laid out under the Lisbon Treaty. Individual Member States should be free to compete with each other for foreign tourism within and outside Europe, without financial obligation to promote one another."@en1
