The Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Stowell of Beeston) (Con)
My Lords, at the start of Questions there is no official line to say who is next. I urge that one noble Lord give way to the other.
Lord Harrison
My Lords, given that tourism is an important economic industry, rather than fiddling around with existing successful structures, would the Government not be better advised to place tourism under the aegis of BIS or, at the very least, to include it in the title of the department where it currently finds itself, that of Culture, Media and Sport? Why not add tourism to the title to give it the energy that is required to treat it seriously?
