Answer
My Department has made no recent estimate of the number of staffed and unstaffed tourism information centres in England.
Both my Department and VisitEngland remain in regular contact with regional tourism stakeholders around the country, for example through forums such as the Tourism Industry Council, which meets regularly.
There are an estimated 150 Destination Management Organisations in England, though there are a number of other organisations that may manage tourist information centres.
