Government's $14 million advertising campaign are still being delayed due to computer glitches.

And last night, Shadow Tourism Minister David Allen said the situation was "unsatisfactory'' and the problems needed to be ironed out quickly.

The current computer programme which helps to give a breakdown of tourist arrivals in Bermuda is now outdated and work is underway to fix the problem, first identified about two months ago.

It has meant that detailed statistics have not been available although The Royal Gazette has obtained rough figures going up to the end of May.

They show that overall the number of people visiting Bermuda has risen by 1.41 percent compared to last year.

Up to the end of May 182,402 people came to the Island -- compared to 179,868 over the same time in 1995.

Figures from the Bermuda Hotel Association show occupancy levels between January and May are roughly on a par with the same months last year.

However, for June they are down from 84.60 percent last year to 79.50 percent this year.

Through the new `Let Yourself Go' campaign, Tourism Minister David Dodwell hopes to attract an extra 25,000 visitors this year, compared to 1995.

Last night Mr. Allen said he accepted there were computer problems and said civil servants were working hard to correct the situation.

He added: "Obviously it is not a satisfactory situation. People are acting in good faith to get the job done, but Government needs to look at this to see it does not take so long to resolve the problem especially as people have a fair amount of anxiety about the tourism figures.

"It is important to know how the `Let Yourself Go' campaign is going and we need to have specifics as quickly as possible so the industry can adjust its marketing plans accordingly.'' Mr. Dodwell and Tourism Director Gary Phillips are both off the Island and unavailable for comment.
