Written Answers. - Tramore Fáilte Board.

Brendan Kenneally

Question:

170 Mr. Kenneally asked the Minister for Tourism and Trade the consultations, if any, he has had with Bord Fáilte before the new board for Tramore Fáilte was named; the reason no representative from the amusements and leisure interests was accommodated on the board; if he will consult Bord Fáilte concerning the possibility of naming an extra member; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11358/95]

Minister for Tourism and Trade (Mr. E. Kenny)

Tramore Fáilte was established as a company by Bord Fáilte in 1966 with the objective of developing within its resort area facilities, amenities and attractions. The appointment of members to serve on the board of Tramore Fáilte is entirely a matter for Bord Fáilte and is not something in which I have ministerial responsibility.
