It is astonishing that representatives of Fáilte Ireland have not visited the area or made meaningful or worthwhile contact with those who have formed their own chamber in order to promote Blarney. The product and the hallmarks of what should be a successful tourism venture are in place but it is being concentrated into 14 weeks of the year and the people promoting the area cannot make progress with Fáilte Ireland. I appeal to the Minister to visit the area. She will be astonished at a unique group of people who are hard-working and prepared to put in whatever effort is necessary. They find they are not getting the support they need from Fáilte Ireland.
