Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 3 March 2021
259. Deputy Joe Carey asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media when the coach tourism business continuity scheme will be introduced; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [11156/21]
View answerAs part of the July stimulus package and in response to the challenges being experienced by the Coach Tourism sector the Government provided €10m to fund the Coach Tourism Business Continuity Scheme which is administered by Fáilte Ireland. The scheme opened for applications last October and I understand allocations are being made this week.
I have referred the Deputy’s question to Fáilte Ireland for further information. Please let my private office know if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
