Not much money to maneuver, but there is also a mini-tourism package of amendments dedicated to tourism among the hundred presented by the council for the modification of the one connected to the financial manoeuvre.
The Budget Committee is examining the introduction of a new classification for eco-sustainable hotel structures, with Olympic-style stickers, before the examination in the Chamber , but also the reduction of the mandatory surfaces for the rooms in the hotels (a minus 20% is allowed in three-star hotels and a minus 25% for four-star and higher hotels), as well as new and simpler rules for accessing the registers of technical directors for travel agencies and excursion guides.
And still a new process for the communication of tourist flows and the modification of the regulations on holiday homes and apartments (Cav) and period residences.
The changes all affect law 16 on tourism approved in 2017 by the previous centre-left majority. As regards the change that introduces the classification of "eco-sustainable" structures in the three distinctive bronze, silver and gold variations, the request serves to «fill this gap, thus borrowing what has already been foreseen for the attribution of the “superior” and “luxury” denominations ””, reads the amendment.
The junta will also issue the implementing directives which also identify and regulate the minimum reception standards, "which will be ready in the next year", writes the commissioner in the report to the amendment which serves to standardize the majority of the other regions, the exceptions to the minimum surfaces of a tourist-hotel room fixed by the national standard in 9 square meters, if single, or in 14 square meters if double.
Among the amendments of the majority on tourism, signed by the Fdi group, presenter Annalisa Manca, also the one that aims to put a hand on the discipline on B&Bs: the proposal provides for the possibility of exercising the activity on no more than three rooms and with a maximum of ten beds and to carry it out continuously and professionally with the opening of the VAT number and registration in the register of companies.
