 Daily news from the Canaries and the islands' biggest English language newspaper on-line October Spanish cabinet meeting confirmed The Spanish government has confirmed that it will fly all its ministers to Las Palmas on 9 October for a cabinet meeting.  Both Santa Cruz and Las Palmas had been pressuring to host the cabinet session, which is expected to adopt a series of decisions to help the Canarian economy. The Canarian government wants Zapatero to help the tourist industry by announcing a two-year extension of the zero airport charges which are due to expire in March 2010, although the measure is unlikely to be passed, according to sources in Madrid. The regional government will be anxious to pursue the issue though, and have stressed many times that the zero charges have had a major impact on attracting flights, pointing to the fact that low-cost carrier Ryanair have already promised to increase the number of flights to the islands due, specifically, to the zero charges.
