Grønland vil ophæve krydstogtafgift

Formanden for det grønlandske selvstyre, Naalakkersuisut, Aleqa Hammond, vil have fjernet den afgift, som turister, der går i land i Grønland, skal betale, så det fremover bliver gratis for krydstogspassagere at gå i land i Grønland.

”Skal vi gøre Grønland konkurrencedygtig med vores nabolande, som modtager rigtig mange krydstogsturister, så er det vigtigt, at vi ser på, hvad årsagen er til, at de holder sig tilbage. I den sammenhæng har vi lyttet til erhvervet som siger, at det er krydstogspassagerafgiften, som er for høj”, sagde Aleqa Hammond.

Ved et pressemøde mandag formiddag, hvor Naalakkersuisut fremlagde deres forslag til efterårssamlingen 2014, blev der stillet et lovforslag, som skal fjerne afgifterne for krydstogspassagerer.

Den grønlandske afgift udgør 550 kroner for hver besøgende. Den foreslås nu helt afskaffet. Seneste ændringer i passagerafgiften skete i 2008, hvor Det Grønlandske Landsting, Inatsisartut, valgte at forhøje afgiften fra 450 kroner til 525 kroner.

”Lige nu er afgiften på 550 kroner. Vi foreslår derfor, at man fjerner den helt, så det er til forhandling i Inatsisartut”, sagde Aleqa Hammond efter dagens pressemøde.
