Tourism legislation for peak season

Summary

Cullen complained that the Minister’s handling of his question left the tourism industry awaiting legislation ahead of the peak season, and gave notice of an Adjournment matter. The Chair said the matter was for the Minister and would communicate with Cullen.

On a point of order, I fail to see the relationship between Question No. 47, nominated for priority, and Question No. 29, which I tabled. I consider the answer given by the Minister to be deplorable. We are heading into our peak tourist season and that industry is waiting for proper legislation on this matter.

That is not a matter for the Chair. Essentially, it is a matter for the Minister to decide how he takes the question.
