Urgent support is needed for the tourism sector which is in crisis according to Tipperary South TD Mattie McGrath.
“The latest figures from the Central Statistics Office [CSO] are very disheartening,” said McGrath, “They show that the numbers of visitors to Ireland in May was down 23.6 per cent – practically a quarter, on the same period in 2009 which in itself wasn’t a great year.”
“This is having a devastating effect on local hotels which are also faced with an over- supply of rooms and a sharp decline in revenue per room,” said McGrath.
