<p>The latest regional-breakdown estimates from the Office for National Statistics
(ONS), published on 20 February 2014, show that in 2011 tourism in Yorkshire and the
Humber directly contributed a gross value-added (GVA) of around £2.6 billion to the
economy. This is 5.3% of the UK's tourism economy, which is valued in this study at
£48.7 billion. The same estimates show that North Yorkshire contributed a GVA of £0.89
billion, which represents 1.8% of the UK's tourism economy. We do not have an estimate
of the contribution of the Harrogate and Knaresborough constituency to the UK's tourism
economy.</p>
