30855 (2025). Celia Wade-Brown to the Minister for Tourism and Hospitality: How, if at all, has the amount of funding spent on tourism marketing from the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy changed from 2024/25 to 2025/26?

Hon Louise Upston: I am unable to provide a definitive proportion of International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) funding that will be spent in the 2025/26 financial year, as the total IVL revenue for that period has not been collected. IVL revenue is dependent on international visitor arrivals, which can vary from year to year. As a result, the proportion of funding spent cannot be confirmed until the actual revenue is known. Hence, a fair comparison cannot be made across 2024/25 and 2025/26.
