Tourism Promotion
472. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the extent to which opportunities for niche tourism are being explored; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15458/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere are many and varied niche areas of tourism that attract visitors to Ireland – many of them based on our key assets and related experiences – and which I believe offer great potential for further development and growth. Fáilte Ireland is tasked with developing the industry generally, including these niche areas. Accordingly, I have asked the agency to reply directly to the Deputy with further information on some of the best prospect niche areas. Please contact my private office if you have not received a reply within ten working days.
