A professional code of honour and regulatory rules for tourism activities to be set in coordination with the five chambers
The board of the Egyptian Tourism Federation, chaired by Hossam El-Shaer, decided to form a professional discipline committee, as part of the federation's keenness to regulate professional performance within the tourism sector, strengthen the principles of transparency and discipline, and raise the quality of tourism services provided.
Hossam El-Shaer, Chairman of the Egyptian Tourism Federation, stated that the professional discipline committee will be responsible for considering all problems and disputes that may arise between members, whether within the federation itself, within a single chamber or between the five tourism chambers, or any disputes between different tourism businesses, whether within the same chamber and tourism activity or from two different chambers and activities.
The federation's chairman explained that the committee will also take on confronting illegal entities and monitoring the various tourism activities, helping regulate the tourism work system and raise the quality of services in the various tourism activities.
El-Shaer added that the committee will work in full coordination with the five tourism chambers to set clear regulatory rules for the various tourism activities in Egypt, along with cooperating with the private sector to prepare a professional code of honour governing how tourism companies and establishments deal with one another and with individuals, as well as setting clear controls for organizing advertising and promotional campaigns for tourism activities.
The Chairman of the Egyptian Tourism Federation noted that the committee's formation and the selection of its members will depend on the nature of the issues raised, with each case including representatives of the chambers concerned, ensuring problems are studied in a professional and specialized manner, achieving fairness and preserving the stability of the tourism sector.
