169 Mr. Haughey asked the Minister for Tourism and Trade the golf courses, whether new or existing, that are to receive public and European moneys between 1995 and the year 2000. [11311/95]
Golf has become one of the fastest growing outdoor activities in Ireland over the past number of years. In this context, the development and promotion of golf tourism has been a major product success and this has resulted in an increasing number of overseas holiday-makers playing golf in Ireland. Numbers have risen from 95,000 in 1989, to over 170,000 in 1994.
