Scotland’s tourism sector faces being “decimated” by Scottish Government legislation.
In an open letter to outgoing First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, seven tourism bodies said the promises set out in the Outlook 2030 strategy, which pledged to make Scotland a “world leader” in the industry, must be protected.
The letter - written by groups including SkyeConnect, Destination Orkney and VisitArran - condemned plans to introduce legislation on short-term lets, visitor levies, deposit return schemes and a ban on alcohol licensing.
