Mr. Padraig Cribben:

The latter question concerns the involvement with local tourist organisations. Our organisation operates in the 25 counties outside Dublin and there is a similar set-up to the likes of the GAA, with a body in each county. One of the stipulations is that in each county, we must have a tourism officer who must be involved with local tourism committees. To be honest, some work better than others, and the real trick is to get all the organisations working together. I take the Deputy's point. Kildare is a little like my own county of Meath, as it has motorways. We have a few more attractions than there are in Kildare but there is a propensity to drive through the area.
