View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 1725 and 1726 together.
The work of the Grow Dublin Tourism Alliance, charged with implementing the Destination Dublin strategy including developing and promoting the new Dublin brand, is an operational matter for the Board and management of Fáilte Ireland. Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's questions to Fáilte Ireland for further information and direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
