To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason Ireland is not being promoted as a tourist destination on the ground at major Irish festivals in places such as Maryland, Catskills and Pittsburgh; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [50838/12]

The matter raised is an operational one for Tourism Ireland Limited as the body responsible for promoting the island of Ireland as a visitor destination overseas. I have referred the Deputy's Question to Tourism Ireland for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
