The full City Council has approved Salou per unanimity of all the political forces represented (Convergence and Union, People's Party, Socialist Party, Democratic Municipal Union and two independent parties) a motion urging the Government of the Government to stop the implementation of a rate tourism, one of the proposals made in the law to accompany the budgets of the Government of Catalonia for the year 2012.   The Councillor for Tourism, Benet Presas, Convergence and Union, considers the rate to municipalities perjudifca coast, and tourism that takes greater account of the prices that the tourist city. Dams has also expressed confidence that the Government of the Generalitat negotiate the details of the fee and will be sensitive to the demands of industry and tourist towns.   The aim of the new rate you want to implement the Catalan government is collecting more taxes, so that tourists would pay between one and a half Euro and Euro per overnight stay in hotels or other tourist accommodation establishments.
