Tourism Industry: Statements.

 

Other tasks being undertaken as part of this truly great task include preparation of a host town programme, which will see 170 delegations stay in cities, towns and villages throughout the island of Ireland for four days prior to the games; securing accommodation at games time for the majority of the athletes and officials taking part; recruiting 30,000 volunteers, 15,000 of whom have already been recruited, and organising volunteer training programmes; and arranging to provide services during the games in 52 different languages. All those involved in the organisation and backing of this great project deserve the congratulations and support of this House.
