I have no direct role in this matter. These are decisions for Tourism Ireland Limited (as the body responsible for promoting the island of Ireland as a visitor destination overseas) and Fáilte Ireland and are not subject to my approval. I have referred the Deputy's Question to both Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive replies within ten working days.
