President Armengol yesterday defended the tourist tax, telling parliament that it does not make the Balearics less competitive. Responding to questions from the Partido Popular, the president rejected criticisms of the tax, saying that the figures support the government's management and a commitment to quality rather than quantity. Nevertheless, she noted that there has been an increase in the number of tourists (in the low season) and that their spending has risen.
