Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Tourist Accommodation.

9.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power the number of hotels, guesthouses and holiday camps registered and graded under the Tourist Traffic Acts.

I am informed by Bord Fáilte that on 28th October, 1966, 731 hotels and 441 guesthouses were registered and graded under the Tourist Traffic Acts.

Two holiday camps were registered; holiday camps are not graded.

10.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power the number of holiday hostels, youth hostels, motor hotels, caravan and camping sites registered and graded under the Tourist Traffic Acts.

I am informed by Bord Fáilte that on 28th October, 1966, five holiday hostels and 36 youth hostels were registered. Holiday hostels and youth hostels are not graded.

Registration regulations governing motor hotels and caravan/camping sites have not yet been finalised and consequently no such premises are registered.

Could the Minister give any indication as to when it will be finalised?

I hope it will be finalised before the next season.
