Tourism job target consultation

Summary

Cullen asked whether the Industry and Commerce Minister had consulted the Tourism Minister on the basis for a 20,000-job tourism target. Reynolds said the question should be directed to the Tourism Minister; Cullen noted that Reynolds had referred to tourism.

Was there consultation between the Minister and his Department and the Minister for Tourism and his Department and if so, on what specific basis have they arrived at the figure of 20,000 jobs to be created in tourism?

Comment on this

I would remind the Deputy that that is a question for the Minister for Tourism and I have no doubt that he would be only too delighted to answer the question when the Deputy sees fit to put down a question to him.
