Following today’s election results, Joss Croft, CEO, UKinbound comments;
“We welcome the new Government and look forward to continuing our dialogue and working with them on the key priorities for the inbound tourism industry during the Brexit transition period and beyond.
“The industry contributed £23 billion to the UK economy last year but in order to keep growing and flourishing we need to have continued access to employees from all over the world, frictionless borders for our visitors post Brexit and continued strong promotion of the UK as a welcoming destination.
“We also urge the Government to consider extending the Brexit transition period beyond December 2020 if needed so that businesses have enough time to prepare.”
