ANTOR Board is pleased to announce that there are no plans to increase membership fees for the Financial Year 1 April 2009 � 31 March 2010, which are being frozen. With the recent announcement of a VAT reduction to 15% members will in fact enjoy a saving on this year�s membership fees when compared to previous years.

Commenting on the decision overwhelmingly taken by the Board, Tracey Poggio of the Gibraltar Tourist Office and Chairman of ANTOR, said �Although ANTOR has raised its profile and increased benefits to its members, especially during the past 12 � 18 months, due to the current credit crunch and limited funds of destinations, ANTOR has decided not to increase the membership fee, which has now been kept flat for the last 3 years. We are dedicated to offering members added value through extra activities, and hope this year will bring many new opportunities for ANTOR."
