Tourism
The sampling for surveys in respondents' homes, as well as in destination surveys and at international arrival and departure points, should be of individuals aged 15 or over, selected at random or according to a quota control procedure. The tourism activity of children can be measured by asking the adults about the children's tourism habits.
