HC Deb 27 July 1972 vol 841 c363W
Mr. Stratton Mills

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will make a statement on the development of tourism and indicate the scope of the intended legislation.

Mr. David Howell

The development of tourism in Northern Ireland has been adversely affected by present troubles but there is no doubt that in more favourable circumstances tourism can make a growing contribution to the Northern Ireland economy. The proposed legislation which will be published at an early date will provideinter alia for a scheme of capital grants for hotel development.
