The seventh North-South body which comes under the direction of the North-South Ministerial Council, is the all-island tourism marketing company, Tourism Ireland Limited. Tourism Ireland is responsible for marketing the island of Ireland abroad as a single tourist destination. Like the six Implementation Bodies detailed above, Tourism Ireland operates under the direction of, and is accountable to the North-South Ministerial Council. It requires the approval of the council for its annual budget and other operational matters. Therefore, the absence of North-South Ministerial Council meetings would adversely affect the work of Tourism Ireland in the same way as it would the work of the other North-South bodies.
