Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what discussions she has had with the Welsh tourism industry on the potential impact of the Welsh Government's tourism levy.

I have regular discussions with members of the business community in Wales. The Welsh tourism sector is thriving. In 2024, British residents alone took over 7 million overnight trips in Wales. The Welsh Government’s Visitor Levy could raise up to £33 million a year to reinvest in local communities and support tourism.
