Tourist tax
Destination of tourist tax will not be known until 2017
Biel Barceló, the vice-president and minister for tourism, said in parliament today that the sustainable tourism tax (which is how the tourist tax is now officially referred to) will have a “purpose-oriented character” but that “until 2017, when it will have been in place for a whole year, it will not be known what it will be allocated to.”

Barceló knows very well where the money will go, - pilfered away to his retirement fund. Scandalous curruption and abuse of power continues in paradise.
Ho ho ho! So the money is going to be collected, but nobody knows why. Priceless incompetence.
So the 'Monster Raving Lunatic Party' is still around and yes it is in Majorca
This gets more like a 1950's Brian Rix farce day by day.
Dare I say it? Quite a high proportion of this new tax will be utilized to set up and pay the "Commission" salaries/expenses etc etc . From which section of the population of Mallorca will the members of this Commission come? Correct you guessed it!
