📹WATCH: Economy Minister @conormurphysf spent the day in County Fermanagh.
The Minister met tourism businesses to talk about how we can attract more tourists to this beautiful part of the country.
In South West College he congratulated young people receiving exam results and encouraged them to talk to our fantastic careers advisors as they consider their next steps.
He also met Hurst Engineering, which has secured contracts worth over £2.5million in England and Wales.
Lastly the Minister visited glass bottle manufacturer Encirc and heard how they are contributing to the circular economy.
Congratulations Ciaran and Alana on your success. Well done also to staff at McAleer Jackson and South West College who have supported them in their HLA.
Wishing you continued success.
