30861 (2025). Celia Wade-Brown to the Minister for Tourism and Hospitality: What proportion, if any, of funding from the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy 2025/26 will be spent on Tourism projects?
Hon Louise Upston: I am unable to provide a definitive proportion of International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) funding that will be allocated to tourism projects in the 2025/26 financial year, as the total IVL revenue for that period has not yet been collected. IVL revenue is dependent on international visitor arrivals, which can vary from year to year. As a result, the proportion of funding directed to tourism projects cannot be confirmed until the actual revenue is known.
