As we have reached a crossroads, I deemed it opportune to ask the tourism review group to look at how we should chart the way forward. In that context, I am particularly disappointed that one of the largest Opposition parties in the State, the Labour Party, should choose to ignore a debate of this significance. It is especially disappointing in view of the importance of the industry to the daily lives of so many people. Some 140,000 people work in the industry, which makes it all the more extraordinary that the Labour Party should ignore the debate.
