National Tourism Development Authority Bill, 2002: Second Stage.
Section 32, which restricts the chief executive from commenting on governmental decisions or from criticising the Minister, is a broad provision. It appears to be extreme and is obviously topical at the moment. Section 8 allows the new authority to establish and operate tourism information offices, but I am concerned as to how this will affect the role of regional tourism authorities.
