lpv:translated text	"The European Parliament’s own-initiative report, which I supported, sets out proposals for making the EU the prime tourist destination in the world. This is an objective of considerable interest to Greece, especially as the country is investing massively in its tourist product, in the hope that this will help to reverse its negative economic growth. It should be noted that tourism currently represents over 10% of European GDP. One point of importance to Greece in the report is the reference to the need to harmonise VAT in order to prevent monopolies, and to maintain them at levels that make the Member States’ tourist product competitive. Although the report is not binding, it contains important proposals and strategic approaches for increasing tourism in the EU which the Member States can apply."@en1
