UK Economy: Tourism

Lord Spicer Excerpts

Thursday 20th November 2014 Lords Chamber

[Lord Gardiner of Kimble]

My Lords, the Government are clear that, where the living wage is affordable for a company, we encourage it to pay it.

[Lord Spicer (Con)]

My Lords, how can you have a successful tourist industry if your major airports are full up?

[Lord Gardiner of Kimble]

That is why we are very keen to hear the reports as to how we can address the matter.
