Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 11 July 2018
493. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if the level of funding allocated through Fáilte Ireland to County Longford for the purpose of promoting tourism within the county will be examined (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31348/18]
View answerMy Department's role in relation to tourism lies primarily in the area of national tourism policy. Funding for tourism development is provided to Fáilte Ireland which has operational responsibility for regional tourism development and domestic tourism promotion.
Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's questions to Fáilte Ireland for direct reply to the Deputy. Please contact my private office if you have not received a reply within ten working days.
