Seymour Crawford (Cavan-Monaghan, Fine Gael)

I asked the question following a representation by a group of holiday home operators, who are extremely worried about the fact that they have lost overnight stays in a dramatic way over the last couple of years. It is not due to the recession, but due to regulation in fisheries. Can the Government provide some indication on whether the travel tax will be abolished? This is an area in which there is tremendous opportunity and it is vital we do away with red tape and unnecessary charges.
