OREANDA-NEWS. December 18, 2015. The IRU has joined forces with 19 other travel and tourism stakeholders to launch the Tourism for Growth and Jobs Manifesto.

The core aim of this new initiative is to ensure that the travel and tourism sector continues to make a significant contribution to the EU economy.

Sonila Metushi, leading IRU’s work on tourism said, “The road transport industry is committed to working together with public and private stakeholders to put tourism high on the EU agenda. The results of this initiative would allow group tourism by coach to prosper and to serve European citizens and visitors with safe, sustainable, affordable and high quality services for all.”
