As the House will know, the Minister recently initiated a major review of tourism policy and performance under the chairmanship of Mr. John Travers, the outgoing chief executive of Forfás, in order to chart a new direction for tourism. This is the first such review in ten years and the Minister is particularly pleased that such an eminent group drawn from within and outside the tourism industry have given their services to undertake this important work. The group is consulting widely and the agenda is wide-ranging, covering product utilisation and innovation; business capability; competitiveness and standards; marketing; access transport; infrastructure and environmental requirements; research and planning; and institutional arrangements, including regional structures and the co-ordination of support measures. The Minister looks forward to receiving the report of the review group later this year.
