We welcome the increase in funding for tourism. Towards what area is the Minister directing this extra funding? There is concern about a no-deal Brexit or even an orderly Brexit and where we are going to pull the tourists from in that context. How is it intended to use the extra funding? The tourism sector is to get €35 million, a 26% increase in funding, which is substantial. Will the Minister go to America and pay them to come over here? How will we get value for the money?
