Tourism Industry: Statements (Resumed).

 

The BMW region, from where I come, is not getting its fair share of funding. I have sought a debate on this matter on several occasions. I hope the Leader of the House will ensure that time is provided for it in the near future. The country has received substantial funding in recent years on the backs of the people in the BMW region. The Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism needs to ensure that we get our fair share so that the many tourist projects in the pipeline will not suffer a shortfall in funding in the coming years. The Estimates, due to be published tomorrow, will contain cutbacks. I hope there will be no cutbacks in the BMW region or in proposed tourism projects.
