The decentralisation programme takes account of the national spatial strategy by locating 2,650 of the 10,300 jobs to locations identified in the strategy as gateways or hubs. The attached table sets out the locations of the 2,650 jobs. Some 2,800 civil servants work in existing decentralised offices in gateways or hubs, excluding the cities of Dublin, Cork and Galway. Other public servants also work in these locations. The spatial strategy recognised that balanced regional development is not all about gateways and hubs. It identified the need to strengthen the county town and large town structure and the need for a renewed emphasis on the potential of the small town and village structure. Virtually all of the locations included in the programme are mentioned in section 4 of the spatial strategy, which outlines how each region will participate in the strategy.
