Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, whether the Government plans to provide financial support to Tourism Ireland.

Tourism is a devolved responsibility in Northern Ireland, and funding for tourism is a matter for Northern Ireland Executive ministers. Tourism Ireland is funded by both the Irish Government and the Northern Ireland Executive, and the Executive has substantial resources available to it to deliver public services. The Government announced in the 2021 Spending Review that it is providing the Executive with £15 billion per year over the next three years, the largest funding settlement for Northern Ireland since devolution.
