The MLA for the North Island is concerned about access to camping spots for residents.
Claire Trevena says she’s heard from residents who haven’t been able to get bookings.
Trevena says there’s no doubt that we should be welcoming tourists to the province, but says tour companies should be partnering with private campgrounds, rather than those funded by tax payers.
Trevena says there are many private campsites and resorts that would be a better fit for tour operators to partner with, rather than using provincial campsites.
