Answer
We are working with both Tourism NI and Tourism Ireland to consider their financial requirements in light of the impact of Covid-19 on tourism both domestically and worldwide. Both organisations have commissioned research to determine people’s propensity to travel both within, and to Northern Ireland, and this will help to inform decisions.
