The Tourism Action Plan 2019 - 2021 includes a commitment that the tourism agencies will review international policy and best practice in relation to accessible tourism with a view to identifying how Ireland competes internationally for the accessible tourism market. In order to attract more overseas visitors Fáilte Ireland will initially pilot a programme with Local Authorities and local industry in the development of Ireland as a top-quality accessible tourism destination.
I have asked Fáilte Ireland to provide the Deputy with further details with regard to their plans for accessible tourism. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 42A
