If the strategy is to become a reality, the relevant steps need to be taken now. Our actions today will determine the success we enjoy tomorrow. The report contains interesting ideas in this regard as it sets out the implementation of the tourism strategy. With regard to improving the business environment for tourism operators, the report recommends a number of actions that will be of interest to Government. The first relates to the issue of commitment.
