Will a hotel guest tax hurt tourism?

A tax on hotel guests is planned by four Dublin councils... Dublin City Council, Fingal and South Dublin county councils have all signed up to the proposed working group, while Dún Laoghaire Rathdown is close to doing so. Will this be off-putting to visitors and bad news for tourism? Joining Andrea to discuss is Paul Gallagher, CEO of Irish Hotels Federation. Michael Lennon, Director of Skylon Hotel in Dublin, Eugene Garrihy from Dublin Bay Cruises, Seamus McGrattan, Sinn Féin Dublin City Councillor as well as listeners.
