2TOURISM RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS
1.0 Introduction
There are many places to visit New South Wales (NSW) like ‘blue mountains’, ‘central
coast’, ‘Hunter Valley’, ‘Lord Home Island’. According to the government report, yearly many
international visitors come to NSW and they have contributed $9.8 billion to the economy of the
concerned destination (Nsw.gov, 2018). Total of 3.9 million overnight international visitors is
liable for the amount which shows 10% increase respect to the previous year (Nsw.gov, 2018).
This business report thus shows the future of the international tourism in NSW based on the
research made from secondary sources. Datasheet with graphics will also be illustrated for
outlining the findings of the study based on which the implications for the future international
tourism in the NSW will be depicted.
2.0 Data Collection
2.1 Government’s support for Environment and Tourism Fund
The government of the nation has taken the initiative for the Environment and Tourism
Fund through which the regional community gets funds to build tourism infrastructure to
associate with such projects (Nsw.gov, 2018). John Barilaro, Deputy Premier and Minister of
NSW have depicted that this fund will enhance the tourist numbers, employment and support the
nation’s government to initiate other government regional investment programs. The fund in
recent times gets sanctioned for $300 million and also motivates the local community to suggest
new ideas for enhancing the tourist visits in NSW (Nsw.gov, 2018).

the regional NSW leads by 34% share of overnight visitors compared to regional Australia
(DestinationNSW, 2018). Moreover, NSW also has the lion share of 65% for overnight visitors
compared to Sydney which is only 39% (DestinationNSW, 2018).

2.3 Federal–State Relations and Tourism Public Policy
Dredge and Jenkins (2003) stated that in Australia, federalism is followed which
resembles that the power is dived between the national and regional government units. However,
