Research was commissioned in summer 2023 to review international evidence on the non-economic impacts of a visitor levy. This was part of the development of visitor levy legislation, a Programme for Government commitment.
The main aims of this research were:
- to collect and report how visitor levy revenues are spent in various global destinations and analyse their governance systems
- to review the environmental, societal, and cultural impacts of this spending
- to identify commonalities and differences in governance across these destinations
- to make recommendations for future governance of visitor levy revenues in Wales
