HC Deb 30 June 1969 vol 786 c25W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many members of the Tourist Boards of the United Kingdom and the British Travel Association, respectively, have attended conferences abroad at the public expense or with the assistance of his Department; and if he will give details.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody

The Northern Ireland Tourist Board is the responsibility of the Government of Northern Ireland. In the past three years only one member of the British Travel Association and the existing voluntary Scottish and Wales Tourist Boards has attended a conference abroad at public expense or with the assistance of the Board of Trade. A member of the Board of B.T.A. attended a conference on transatlantic travel organised by the European Travel Commission in Amsterdam in March, 1969.
