Information in relation to expenditure by both agencies is available in their published Annual Reports and Accounts. The 2013 Annual Reports and Accounts will be approved later this year. In relation to planned overseas promotion expenditure for 2014, Tourism Ireland's approved business plan, which includes funding from Northern Ireland, has an agreed total budget provision of €58.029 million this year.  I have referred the question to both Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland for any further information they are able to provide.  Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
