Mary Upton (Dublin South Central, Labour)

Yes. Also, when can we expect these actions to be initiated? A point made in the report is that tourism is as important as agriculture. While I agree agriculture is an important industry for this country, why is it that we do not have the same noise around tourism as we do around agriculture? Why have we not had the same level of activity or concern around tourism from the various Ministers involved? Tourism is a very important industry for this country now. While it has enormous potential, we have heard little about it from the Ministers involved.
