Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media

Working Conditions and Skills Shortages in Tourism and Hospitality Sector: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Paul Kelly:

If that question is directed to me, the make-up of the members of the board of Fáilte Ireland is a matter for the Minister. It is important to point out there are two members of the board of Fáilte Ireland who are members of the Irish Hotels Federation and are members of the Licensed Vintners Association. However, as board members of any organisation, their responsibility is not to represent where they come from but to provide oversight of the organisation of which they are board members. The make-up of the board is a matter for the Minister, but it is important to note there are far more industry associations operating in tourism than there are board positions on Fáilte Ireland so-----
