Government backs six initiatives to boost international visitors to regional New Zealand

The Government is backing six initiatives to attract more international visitors into regional New Zealand and support tourism growth across the country, Tourism and Hospitality Minister Louise Upston says. The announcement was made in a Beehive Government Releases statement from the minister. The initiatives are intended to shift some international visitor flows away from main centres and strengthen tourism activity in regional areas, the release says. The move forms part of the Government’s effort to support the wider tourism sector by encouraging growth beyond urban hubs. No further details on the individual initiatives were provided in the statement.
