Tourism Law

 Although the Federal Tourism Law was passed by Congress three years ago, it has not been put into effect because what are called “regulations” have yet to be added. The law was passed to enhance the authority of the Tourism Ministry, but without the required regulations, it is ineffective. For instance, in the future the ministry will be able to say when a hotel can call itself a five-star establishment, but the yet-to-be written regulations spell out what is needed for five stars.
