Tourism Industry: Statements.
This also pertains to inland waterways which the previous speaker raised. Our inland waterways are a very important tourism product, especially with regard to the German market. However, interest from Germany in this sector has fallen in recent years, partly due to the decline in the German economy, a matter over which we have no control. While I am not certain what the contents of the legislation will be, it will be necessary to get expert advice to assist in remedying the shortfall in the development of our inland waterways product and ensuring they are improved and developed.
