60 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Tourism, Transport and Communications whether he considers the continued existence of Bord Fáilte to be justified.
While I appreciate that the private sector has a major role to play in tourism. I am satisfied that there is a need for a State supported promotional and developmental agency for tourism and that Bord Fáilte should continue to fulfil their statutory obligations as set out in the Tourist Traffic Acts 1939-87.
