‹ Ceisteanna-Questions. Oral Answers. - Home Holidays Incentive. Restaurant Licensing for Tourism
Summary
A Deputy urged the Minister to press for faster restaurant licensing, citing eating houses’ importance to tourism and local economies. The Minister said the Justice Minister was working on the matter.
Will the Minister, purely in the interests of tourism, speak to his colleague, the Minister for Justice, in regard to the licensing of restaurants? I am sure the Minister is aware that many areas have nothing to offer tourists apart from very good eating houses which are very important to the local economy. They are providing a necessary service to tourism and, therefore, the Minister for Justice should speed up the process as it has taken years to bring to fruition.
