Flagship tourism strategy under fire

MANY of Scotland's most important tourism areas stand to gain little from the Government's flagship strategy for the industry, according to a critical new report.

MSPs on Holyrood's economy and tourism committee called on ministers to produce an urgent plan to ensure the Winning Years initiative boosts the industry in the Highlands and other rural areas.

They also voiced concern at the collapse of The Gathering which was to have been held in Stirling in 2014.
