LDA TOURISM BUDGET
Here is the allocation of the LDA's tourism
funding this yearas some of this is "development"
work rather than "marketing and promotion" it totals
more than £22 million. LDA tell me that they cannot provide
a breakdown for later in the CSR period, as their budgets aren't
worked out in advance. However, I don't expect these sums to change
much over that period, unless our funding bid is successful. LDA
also says that the budget figures below look as though they will
be pretty accurate at End of year.
Below is also the four-year plan for Visit London's
funding, within that. Again, this should not change over the period
unless there is a decision to fund new Olympic-related projects.
