Touristic Law

After weeks of controversy surrounding the regulation of tourist rental of holiday villas and apartments in Mallorca, he settled the issue yesterday after a two-hour meeting in which the government itself , along with the consells and municipalities, came to this solution consensus on the understanding that the autonomic regulation in force since 2012 - does not prohibit this type of leases and "does not change anything," as claimed by the Minister of Tourism , Carlos Delgado.

But the fact that the Government is not going to make changes to the standard, does not mean it can not be changed in the future. To do this, it would suffice for an island decided a change in the tourism model .

At this point , it would open a process that would be able consells changes to the Tourism Act by a regulation of the standard itself or Insular Territorial Plan ( ITP ) , since each consell has ceded the management and tourism promotion , except that of Mallorca .

According to Delgado walked , " each order its tourism island and the Government respect to each " of them . And although so far maintained that " nobody wants to do," the fact is that the Consell de Menorca announced just hours after the encounter that prompted the amendment of the law in order to regulate these rentals and reach a consensus with the affected sectors .

The Minister of Tourism, who was speaking after his meeting , with Vice President of the Government and Minister of the Presidency, Antonio Gómez , with the presidents and representatives of tourism in the insular councils of the Federation of Local Authorities of the Balearic Islands ( FELIB ) and several municipalities on this issue , he stressed that " the consensus right now is that you have to change the law " and said that these rentals are prohibited only if they are marketed and tourist services also use portals industry to advertise like for example homeaway.com.
