lpv:translated text	"Tourism represents 10% of GDP and constitutes 12% of total employment. It is focused on the integration and development of less developed regions and represents an important instrument in the enhancement, dissemination and promotion of our image in the world. This sector will be more competitive if it supports diversification and innovations, improves professional qualifications and skills, and promotes an extension of the tourist season. Emphasis should be placed on education and professional development, on investment in innovation and ICT, and on ensuring full Internet access in all parts of the European Union, including poorer countries. The tourist visa issue has to be resolved. We can attract millions of tourists from third countries. Infrastructure requires modernisation. It is important to try to overcome the seasonal nature of tourism. The Member States should apply for a permanent reduction in VAT imposed upon specific labour-intensive activities, including catering services."@en1
