| RDO (formerly the OTE) was created following the decision by the European Timeshare Federation in February 1998 to integrate all national timeshare trade associations into one pan-European direct membership Organisation: The RDO. The former timeshare councils in over ten countries act now as its national chapters, and a significant number of Timeshare related companies are RDO members ruled by a strict code of ethics. RDO works closely with the DTI, OFT and governments at European and National level, aiming to create a fair legislation for Timeshare and protection to consumers. RDO is now accepted as the Timeshare industry trade body. |
