Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The point is well made in respect of the impact of migration on tourism. It is a real challenge in terms of accommodation. The Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport and Media, Deputy Catherine Martin, is working with the industry and met a confederation recently in respect of endeavouring to find solutions and create options. We have a real challenge in the country. We are in a war-time situation and that has impacts. Alternative accommodation is being developed in terms of reconfiguration of other buildings, as well as rapid-build housing being on the way, but there will remain challenges. There is no magic solution to this, unfortunately.
