Paragraph 9 a (new)
Paragraph 9 a (new)
9a. Stresses that, pursuant to Article 195 of the Treaty, the EU has complementary powers relating to tourism; stresses that tourism has become a recognised category in the EU budget, but that the objectives formulated in the Lisbon Treaty have not yet been fully attained; observes that, in order for Europe to be a leading economy in global competition in the field of tourism, tourism must figure in the work of the Committee on Transport as a specific field of policy; notes that, with the aid of the resources provided through the COSME programme, the EU can respond swiftly and effectively to changes that occur in the tourism industry, but that there is a need for targeted programmes and experimental projects with the aid of which every sector of public transport may be involved as effectively as possible; observes that, by this means, economic growth may be achieved, while more – and sustainable – jobs will be created and the EU will be the prime destination in international tourism.
