I propose to take Questions Nos. 1063 and 1064 together.
Data on spectator numbers for the 2011 Irish Open is primarily a matter for the organisers of the event, the European Tour.
As sponsors of the event in question, Fáilte Ireland may be in a position to assist in relation to the Deputy's queries. I have referred the Deputy's Questions to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days
