European delegation finds out about Balearics “Smart Islands” project
A delegation from the European Economic and Social Committee, a European Union consultative body, has been in Majorca to meet with the government and the Chamber of Commerce in hearing about projects to make the Balearics an "intelligent destination" island territory. This comes under the title of "Smart Islands", a project involving the ministry of employment, trade and industry and the programme "iCommerce, innovation and closeness" in which 24 Balearic municipalities are participants.

''Smart Islands'',the dumbest thing you have ever done is to re-introduce a tourist tax,something that the UK press has not yet latched onto but when they do,all hell will break loose when they find out that you want to use this tax to pay for pensions,income for those in care,care homes,guide dogs,pensioners holidays and God knows what else that Balearic and Spanish tax payers should be paying for,not tourists. Personally,my holiday in Majorca this year will be my last because I am damned if I will pay a single cent to things that are not my responsibility,I will be going to Tenerife in future where they value tourists and make them feel welcome.
