Tom Barry (Cork East, Fine Gael)

It is, as you can see, a Cheann Comhairle. Capital funding should be available to create tourism apps for specific regions, which would be really helpful. This would allow the tourist to custom plan his or her journey. Informing the public of the huge choice available to it is crucial. Tourism is like any business. It must be marketed in an accessible, cost effective and up-to-date fashion.

I commend the Bill to the House. It is another fabulous piece of work by the Minister.
