Section 9 is standard and allows me to confer additional functions on the authority. Section 10 gives the authority power to set up companies and to acquire interests in companies. Section 11 allows the authority, either at my direction or with my consent, to delegate certain of its functions and describes the types of body to which functions can be designated. One body specifically mentioned in that context is Tourism Ireland Limited. Tourism Ireland Limited has been constituted as a joint subsidiary of Bord Fáilte and the Northern Irish Tourist Board which is dedicated to the international marketing of the island of Ireland as a tourism destination.
