Budget 2021 provided a significant package of tax and fiscal measures to build the resilience of the economy and to help vulnerable but viable businesses across all sectors. A key measure in the Budget was the provision of an additional €55m in Business Continuity funding to support strategic tourism businesses, to be administered by Fáilte Ireland.
The Scheme will contribute to the fixed costs of identified strategic tourism businesses that are not eligible for CRSS to support their survival. It will provide an equitable level of payment to the CRSS for qualifying businesses such as tourism attractions, activity providers, caravan and camping sites and others.
I have referred the Deputy's question to Fáilte Ireland for further details on the scheme. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
