Tourism Industry Council: Passenger Ships
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if she will invite representatives of the cruise industry to join the Tourism Industry Council.
Answered by Chris Bryant
DCMS recognises that the cruise sector makes a significant contribution to the UK economy, namely £9.4 billion and supporting 82,000 jobs pre-pandemic. As a new government we are reviewing the composition and terms of reference of the Tourism Industry Council with the aim of securing broad and diverse representation from a variety of industries and delivering clear outcomes for the sector.
