Agenda item

Members considered a report on the level of tourism support in Neath Port Talbot.

Members were advised that the report was the culmination of the work of a smaller group of Members of the Committee who undertook the review.

The Chair of the Committee extended his thanks to the Members of the review along with the external witnesses who gave their time to provide evidence including Visit Wales from the Welsh Government.

The Cabinet Member welcomed the report and stated that it was good that a previous decision made by the Council has been looked at with a fresh pair of eyes. It was further stated that in the current economic climate it was difficult to identify additional resources but this area would be looked at critically going forward.

Following scrutiny the Committee were supportive of the recommendations contained within the report.
