Mr. Se?n Connick:

To support Ms Flanagan on that point, particularly from the visitor attraction perspective, multiple roles are required. Many different, diverse roles are required, from digital marketing right through to administration, accountancy, finance and tour-guiding. It is not just about tour-guiding, since sometimes there is a perception that visitor attractions just require tour guides. They are complex operations, depending on their size and scale. As the Senator knows, with the climate and era we operate in, digital marketing is important to us.

Thus, the skill set now required to operate within the structure of the visitor attractions is quite high. We welcome anything or any Government initiatives put forward to reduce the waiting time with getting employees into the system.

Likewise, many of us have restaurants and we depend on the buses to deliver the visitors to our doors. The three organisations represented here work together cohesively to ensure the visitor is dropped at the doorstep. Visitor attractions are drivers of economic development in all the rural areas. We need the buses and the restaurants, and the staff to operate them, so people can enjoy the experience when they get there.
