Orkney Islands Council encourages public engagement through new visitor levy web page
Orkney Islands Council has added a web page dedicated to the visitor levy, allowing access to key information about the legislation, the process so far and next steps.
The web page also contains a number of frequently asked questions and links to related external sites.
The council’s sustainable tourism team manager, Christie Hartley, said: “Over the coming months we will be keen to engage with as many people and organisations as possible around the possibility of a visitor levy within Orkney, and the launch of the dedicated web page is a key part of this process.
“We would encourage people to have a look as it contains information that we know at this stage. Given that we have not yet begun our investigative work, there are many unknowns. However, these will become clearer as we progress, and the web page will be updated accordingly.”
