Minister Griffin and I have appointed a Tourism Recovery Taskforce to prepare a Tourism Recovery Plan which will include a set of recommendations on how best the Irish tourism sector can adapt and recover in the changed tourism environment as a result of the Covid-19 crisis. The plan will identify priority aims, key enablers and market opportunities for the sector for the period 2020-2023. The Taskforce may consult with stakeholders to inform its deliberations and is expected to report back later this year.

The Taskforce is due hold its first meeting this week. How the Taskforce administers its business will be a matter for the Chair. The membership of the Taskforce is available on my Department’s website.
