While I have not recently met with or been directly briefed by representatives of the travel and tourism industry, I am fully aware of the negative impact that the current difficult economic situation is having on the aviation sector and am closely monitoring developments.
My Department is liaising with the Department of Arts Sport and Tourism in the context of implementing recommendations from the Report of the Tourism Renewal Group published recently by my colleague, the Minister for Arts Sport and Tourism, Deputy Martin Cullen.
