Question NW1642 to the Minister of Tourism
22 June 2017 - NW1642
Krumbock, Mr GR to ask the Minister of Tourism
Whether she has established the reasons for the 11% increase in spending per day on domestic trips in 2016 compared to 2015, even though SA Tourism reports that affordability is the main deterrent to taking a trip; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
The increase in average spend per day was driven by increased spend towards transport and shopping for personal usage among others.
