U.K., Nov. 6 -- UK Parliament issued the following news:
Commenting on the introduction of the Visitor Levy Bill to Parliament , DCMS Committee Chair Dame Caroline Dinenage MP said:
"As part of our inquiry examining how best to support a healthy tourism industry, we've heard about both the potential benefits and drawbacks of an overnight levy.
We will also want to explore how to make sure that the levy is used by mayors to support tourism in their areas, rather than as a means of plugging holes in their budgets.
It's imperative that the government takes on board all views to ensure that what is introduced is not just another burden on our vital hospitality businesses but genuinely helps a sector which is so vital to our economy."
