The importance of the tourism across Wales both as an employer and as a
way of attracting investment into the country has long been recognised. This is
why a Plaid government will double the Welsh Government’s funding for Visit
Wales (from £7m to £14m) so that they are better placed to attract tourists to
Wales.
The Party of Wales will continue to bring more people to Wales and
improve the tourist experience by ensuring joined-up services and knowledge so
that tourists can stay close to events, that hotels have access to the latest
tourism information, that public transport is available when required and that
hotels can provide the best quality of service, including the use of foreign
languages.”
Something that will directly benefit the small businesses, food suppliers
and food producers in Monmouth constituency is Plaid Cymru’s plan to designate
2018 a Year of Welsh Food and Drink, in order to boost local producers and our
vital agricultural industry, as well as support small businesses and sellers
who form the stepping stone between farm and fork.
The Welsh Government must also work hard to promote Wales as a
world-class, sustainable tourism destination with activities and experiences
based on our natural resources, our produce, our unique coast and landscape and
our language, culture and heritage.
We also need to give our young people the opportunity to develop careers and businesses in the hospitality
industry. This is why Plaid Cymru will also create a National Academy for the Welsh Tourism
sector to provide ‘hand-on’ learning to students in catering and hospitality
from apprenticeships up to degree level
