The joint Ireland-Northern Ireland INTERREG Programme 1994-9 is the successor to the earlier programme which ran from 1991 to the end of 1993. This joint programme covers the Border counties of Cavan, Donegal, Leitrim, Louth, Monaghan and Sligo. The INTERREG programme is a multi-sectoral one with two major objectives; cross-Border co-operation and the economic regeneration of Border regions of the European Union.
