The Tánaiste will have seen over last weekend the tremendous success of the hosting of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open at Ballyliffin Golf Club in Donegal. Its tremendous success was a great credit to the management, staff and members of Ballyliffin Golf Club, as well as Donegal County Council for its advance preparations. It was also a credit to the many members of the local community in towns and villages who put such an effort into preparing the Inishowen Peninsula for it. The Garda also ensured it went so smoothly. The event showcased Inishowen and Donegal to an audience of up to 500 million people internationally as a tourist product. Will the Government ensure, in working with Fáilte Ireland, the type of investment required to ensure that tourism in Donegal can be built on and that the success of the Irish Open can be used to create a legacy in terms of employment and additional economic investment for years to come?
