translate English to German: Commissioner Verheugen quite rightly pointed out that the rapporteur was right to describe tourism as something that can create jobs, for which it has enormous potential, but I would ask him to admit that tourism is a field that the Commission has neglected up to now.
Man spürt in dem Bericht seine Begeisterung und sein Engagement für den Fremdenverkehr. Herr Verheugen, Sie haben zu Recht darauf hingewiesen, dass der Berichterstatter Recht hat, dass Tourismus etwas ist, was Arbeitsplätze schaffen kann, was ein riesiges Potenzial hat.
