National Tourism Development Authority Bill, 2002: Second Stage.
There was some discussion about the appointments to the board and mention was made of Páidí Ó Sé. People like him are excellent choices for this type of board. We need people with knowledge and experience who have the image and who understand the position in terms of the west, rural Ireland and the culture associated with those regions. Figures like that will bring so much to the table in terms of defining our tourism strategy. We need people who are not necessarily motivated by money but by the development of the community.
