Working Conditions and Skills Shortages in Ireland’s Tourism and Hospitality Sector: Discussion

Mr. Bernard O'Shea:

As Mr. Ó Lionáin noted, both Fáilte Ireland and the Department are represented on the careers oversight group, working closely with industry, hotels, the vintners' associations and restaurants, and we will certainly be happy to take those comments on board. The vintners' associations referred to the plans that will emerge from the careers oversight group and we will certainly take those observations on board. On tourismcareers.ie, a range of courses and careers are provided for and highlighted, including in the wider hospitality sector.

In practice, there is quite a degree of support for careers within the wider hospitality sector, but we will certainly take on board the comments of industry this morning.
