TOMORROW’S TOURISM
| Under fishing and tourismthis is the forewords by Tony Blair, the British prime minister :
“Britain is a wonderful country. Its people, landscapes, culture, character, history and traditions; its achievements, impact, successes, and standing; and its future, its vision, its potential. These are the things which make Britain great, and which make people – its own people, and people from across the world – want to see Britain, to know Britain and to understand Britain.
Tourism is central to how people from across the country and from abroad can begin to do that, and continue to do that. I want everyone, whether they’re from different parts of the United Kingdom or from different countries around the world, to be able to enjoy the rich diversity of what Britain has to offer.
Of course, Britain has been a key tourist destination for many years – one of the most popular in the world. Currently, almost 26 million people arrive here every year to see what Britain is about. London is one of the world’s favourite cities. All this will increase still further next year when our national Millennium celebrations place Britain at the center of the world stage.
But the challenge facing us now is to create a competitive, world-class tourism industry in Britain which matches both the quality and the best of British business generally and the scale of tourism in Britain in particular. We must have a tourism industry which provides affordable quality, which is open to all and which makes the best use of Britain’s resources. And a tourism industry which concentrates on our key resource – people.
I believe that the Government’s new strategy for tourism – a strategy for England, but one which has clear implications for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland – will help towards this goal. It offers both vision and practical help. It is detailed and comprehensive. It is realistic and forward-looking. In partnership with all those working in tourism, I believe it is vital to our aim of making tourism throughout the UK as good as the best of British tourism already is – so that people can visit and enjoy the best of Britain.”
