The breakdown of the total Exchequer provision for tourism services in 2017 is available in the 2017 Revised Estimates Volume (REV) for Public Services, which is published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and available on that Department's website. The subheads of relevance to the two tourism agencies, Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland, are E3, E4, E5 and E6 of the Vote of the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. Of the overall annual Exchequer allocation to the two agencies for 2017, the amount of funding received from my Department by Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland by end-April totals €28.097 m. As regards funding received by the two agencies from other sources, I have referred the Deputy's questions to both Tourism Ireland and Fáilte Ireland for further information and direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
