I need to book a room in Dublin for next week. Rooms available from €89. Reality is Patrick’s Day fills in Dublin 3 mths in advance. The media reports on prices the week before 17th when Dublin is fully booked for months. People should not support those charging crazy rates
Delighted to take part in the Irish Hotel Federation Conference this morning in Killarney and to catch up with industry colleagues. @IHFcomms

Government extension of 9% VAT rate is very welcome & goes a long way in helping to sustain livelihoods & support recovery of our industry - @Denyse_Campbell

Tourism reps say increasing reduced 9% VAT rate for sector will be 'extremely detrimental' (via @thejournal_ie) jrnl.ie/5998071
If the Government raise the VAT rate next week, Irish consumers will pay the 2nd highest tax rate in the EU for eating out & staying in hotels. This measure will raise inflation further & see lots of restaurants closing. 9% is the fair rate for consumers @LeoVaradkar @mmcgrathtd

Cork restaurateur:
‘Closures are going to come’ if Vat increase goes ahead”

If true would be a double whammy. Damaging 20k businesses & damaging public as Vat hike means price rises. @JimPowerEcon report showed a Vat hike would add 4.1% inflation to food and accom prices & risk 24k jobs. Time for Gvt to tread carefully. independent.ie/irish-news/po…

Was at this earlier with Chair @Irishtourismind @ElainaFitzKane. Industry has strong case for 9%. Low margins mean Vat ⬆️ can’t be absorbed - will be inflationary, damage demand & threaten jobs. Hope @mmcgrathtd sees big picture 🤞 rte.ie/news/ireland/2023/021…
With huge inflation in energy, food, beverage & labour in the last 12 mths, hundreds of bars & restaurants are struggling to survive.A VAT increase will be be the last straw for many of them @mmcgrathtd @LeoVaradkar @cathmartingreen irishtimes.com/politics/2023…
