           These characteristics of the TRA survey data make it difficult to separate out
           visitor retail spending from resident household spending, and some double-
           counting of expenditure is unavoidable. Nonetheless, the TRA survey and
           other data allows for an approximation of retail spending by visitors and day
           trippers in the Sunshine Coast region to be made, and a fair share assumption
           applied to the spending potential for the Noosa-Noosaville area. That is,
           Noosa-Noosaville’s potential share of visitor expenditure would be roughly
           equivalent to its share of the Sunshine Coast’s room–unit stocks and room–unit
           nights.
