I propose to take Questions Nos. 317 to 319, inclusive, together.
My Department's role in relation to tourism lies primarily in the area of national tourism policy. While the Department provides funding to Fáilte Ireland for investment in tourism, it has no role in the administration of the agency's capital grants schemes. 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.
