The director of the Chair for New Green Transition at the Universitat de València, Aurora Pedro, has been interviewed on 'Radio Televisión Española (RTVE)' about the report she recently drafted on the tourist tax.

During the interview, she explained how, with the data available from other European countries that have introduced the tax, such as Amsterdam or Dublin, they detected that the attitude of the population and tourists was one of understanding. The same happens with the only two Spanish regions that have introduced the tax, Catalonia and the Balearic Islands.

According to Pedro, the tax has the function of generating additional financial resources to maintain all kinds of spaces, such as natural and cultural, as well as to improve security or tourism promotion, among others.

You can listen to the full interview at around minute -18 of the podcast here.
