Could a 'Tourist Tax' Save Dublin?

As Dublin’s hotel industry calls for cost relief, a growing debate surrounds the proposal of a tourist tax that could raise €12 million for the city. Proponents argue the funds would be reinvested to maintain Dublin’s infrastructure, while critics warn the levy could reduce spending in tourism businesses and other regions, especially as visitor numbers decline this year according to the CSO. Louise Burne (Irish Mirror), Mick Clifford (Irish Examiner), economist David W. Higgins, Thomas Hubert (The Currency), and Michael Magner, President of the Irish Hotels Federation explore the economic and social implications of the tourist tax proposal. ---- Virgin Media News is Ireland's national independent television news service.
