I propose to take Questions Nos. 275 to 277, inclusive, together.

My Department's role in relation to tourism lies in the area of national tourism policy.  It is not directly involved in the management or development of individual tourism projects, such as the Wild Atlantic Way and Ireland's Ancient East and the marketing and promotion thereof.  These are operational matters for the Board and Management of Fáilte Ireland.

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.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 42A.
