HC Deb 18 November 2002 vol 394 cc11-2W
18. Mr. Tynan

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if she will make a statement on the promotion of UK tourism, while respecting the district identities of Scotland, England and Wales. [81385]

Dr. Howells

On 31 October we announced plans to develop a lead Government body for inbound tourism to Britain and the marketing of England within Britain. This will create a more coherent marketing focus across Britain, one that ensures that England, Scotland and Wales retain and develop strong separate brand identities to attract both domestic and overseas holidaymakers.
