The Tourism Alliance has this week published a 10-point policy agenda for 2023. Each of the policies we outline would boost tourism and help the UK economy recovery from Covid and the cost-of-living crisis.
The ten policies are:
1. Introduce a Youth Group Travel Scheme for EU Student Groups
2. Increase Funding for International Marketing
3. Introduce a Low-Cost Five Year Visitor Visa
4. Reinstate the VAT Reclaim Scheme
5. Revise the Package Travel Regulations
6. Fully Implement the De Bois Review
7. Expand and Reform the Youth Mobility Scheme
8. Reduce the VAT Rate For Hospitality and Attractions
9. Use ETAs to Boost Business Tourism
10. Reform Business Rates
Each of these policies is explained and costed in the policy booklet published by the Alliance titled Tourism and the UK’s Economic Recovery.
This is the proactive agenda we will be working on in 2023 and as we head towards a general election.
