Should you have any queries please feel free to forward them to me in the first instance and I cannot answer them then I will pass them on to the committee members. As mentioned at the conference it is vital that all areas of the industry are consulted on the new scheme to allow it to be owned by the resort and to reflect the opinions of the industry. to that end, the ocmmittee members will shortly be going out to their respective areas to start looking at marketing needs.

Thank you again for your support and we look forward to speaking to you soon at future updates.

With best wishes
