The April update related to March data provided by the
Department of Children, Equality,
Disability, Integration and Youth
. Then
t
here were some 50,000 beds under contract
a
nd
approx. half were in Fáilte Ireland registered establishment.
It indicated that:
o
28% of all Fáilte Ireland registered tourism bed stock was contracted to the State.
o
Excluding Dublin, the figure was
provided
as 34%.
Based on this understanding, Fáilte Ireland estimated that the economic impact on
downstream tourism business was €1.1billion in lost earnings
before allowing for inflation
.
However, we now know that this assessment overstated the percentage of Fáilte Ireland
registered tourism bed stock under-contract.

Note: As before, the working assumption is that one person equals one bed.
According to the
data provided by the
Department of Children, Equality, Disability,
Integration and Youth:
o
There are 76,143 beds under contracts
o
29,555 beds are under contract to the government in premises on Fáilte Ireland
registers and/or listings, (39%)
o
The remaining 46,588 (61%) is in non-registered properties.
85% of the beds in registered premises are in hotels and guesthouses.
Nationally, 13% of all registered tourism bed stock is under Government contract.
There are five counties with over 20% of registered tourist accommodation stock removed.
They are Offaly, Mayo, Leitrim, Meath & Clare. Clare tops the list at 33%, followed by

Looking at the 46,588 beds in unregistered properties,
up to
24,000 are in
establishments which could be tourism related.
Unregistered tourism relevant properties include former hotels, inns, lodges,
unlisted guesthouses, unregistered B&Bs, re-purposed accommodation retreat
centres.
Note that only hotels and guesthouse are legally obliged to register with Fáilte
Ireland.
The 13% (29,555 beds) national average increases due to a significant number of
beds under contract in unregistered but tourism relevant establishments.
This highlights the need for and importance of a fully inclusive register of all tourist
accommodation stock.

We are quoting a range rather than a single value because not all contracted beds are in Fáilte
Ireland registered premises.
Based on the data provided by
DCEDIY,
the updated
inflation adjusted
estimate
of the economic
impact of displaced bed stock is in the range of €700 million to €1billion.
This is explained as follows:
a)
If we only factored registered stock into the calculation (29,555 beds), the revenue hit is
€700 million p
er
annum.
b)
If we broaden the calculation to include contracts in (a) registered stock and (b) half of the
unregistered tourism relevant properties (12,000 beds), then the estimate is €1billion.
