Mark Tanzer, Chief Executive of the ABTA and the Federation of Tour Operators said: ?Our members take the safety and well being of our customers seriously, and we welcome the opportunity to build on the close partnership we already have with the FCO.
?We really appreciate the Minister?s recent efforts in Greece, which we understand have led to the Greek authorities increasing the numbers of tests they carry out on alcohol quality in-resort. We will monitor and evaluate any changes that are implemented with our members.?
