Question:
To ask the Minister for the Economy for an update on the Holiday at Home Voucher scheme.

Answer:

The Holiday at Home Voucher Scheme will allow Northern Ireland households to claim back 50% off a stay of two nights or more in certified accommodation, up to the value of £100. Vouchers will also be issued offering 50% off visits to attractions or tourism experience providers, up to the value of £20. Vouchers will be allocated on a first come first served basis and each household can apply for one of each type of voucher. Households can then claim their voucher money back by uploading their receipt and voucher details online. Tourism NI is currently working with the industry to decide on the most opportune time to launch the scheme.
