As Minister of State for Tourism and Sport, my responsibility in relation to tourism lies primarily in the area of national policy. The development of Ireland's Ancient East is an operational matter for the Board and Management of Fáilte Ireland. My Department is not directly involved in its development or promotion.

Accordingly, I have asked Fáilte Ireland to reply to the Deputy directly. Please contact my private office if you do not hear from them within ten working days.
