Text
I thank the Member for her question. I am aware that organisers of events across all parts of the North will engage with their local councils on supporting events for the Twelfth. Event organisers will have opportunities to engage with Tourism NI, and, of course, they are free to do that on all the programmes and supports that it puts in place. I encourage people to engage in that regard.
