Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 16 September 2016
1843. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his plans to include north Cork in Ireland's Ancient East; and if specific sites have been allocated a role within the framework and funding for such sites. [26231/16]
View answerMy Department's role in relation to tourism lies primarily in the area of national tourism policy. It is not involved in the management or development of individual projects such as Ireland's Ancient East, which are operational matters for the Board and Management of Fáilte Ireland, the National Tourism Development Authority.
Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's question to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
