Ceist:

72. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the degree to which he and or his Department has studied tourism development in other jurisdictions within the EU and without; the extent to which market research has been utilised to determine the issues most likely to attract visitors; if architectural heritage and cultural themes have been utilised sufficiently in this country; if the attraction of national monuments and or sites could be enhanced by any particular strategy with a view to dramatically increasing national and international interest in such locations; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
