New tourism magazine

Tourism sector organisations combined yesterday to publish a new magazine

Tourism sector organisations combined yesterday to publish a new magazine. The move is part of a drive to encourage more young people to consider working in the industry. Get a Life. . . in Tourism, backed by the Irish Hotels Federation (IHF), the Restaurants Association of Ireland (RAI) and the State tourism training organisation CERT, is to be published once a year on a print run of 20,000. The magazine is aimed at students and will be distributed through career guidance teachers. "Tourism is the second largest employer in the country after agriculture, and we believe that by 2002 it will be the biggest," said Mr Bill Power, president of the IHF.
