Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 4 December 2014
206. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the extent to which his Department continues to encourage high standards throughout the hotel, catering and hospitality sectors with particular reference to incentivisation where appropriate; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [46642/14]
View answerThe development of quality and standards in the tourism industry are matters for the board and management of Fáilte Ireland. Fáilte Ireland seeks to develop and maintain high standards throughout the tourism industry, including through training and education; business supports for tourism enterprises; and the maintenance of registers of various categories of tourism accommodation. Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy’s question on to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply.
