I've seen a few reports some time ago but they were done on a regional / sub
regional basis.  (Most focused more on the issue of whether tourist areas
would need to be 'euro' aware whether the UK was in or not, and basic info
on the euro rather than anything analytical.)

Not sure if the various tourist boards have published anything - will have a
look and see.

Have you tried the Treasury EMU site (www.euro.gov.uk) as a starting point?
Most of the Government's own department websites now have a euro angle too.

Also, each region has a Euro forum set up by government to consider public
and private sector issues on this theme.  Most are based in the DTI sections
of Government Offices.   The panel is made up of sector representatives -
the SW panel did include a tourism rep who may be able to help you (check
with Mike Twomey at GOSW in Bristol).

Also, the Commission's website on the euro has thematic links - these are
often useful but have less on UK issues.  The Prince programme too (funding
euro related activities) is worth looking at.


Shout if more needed.
