Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 December 2005
261 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources the Border counties’ eligibility for INTERREG funding following the review of the Inland Fisheries Authority; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39037/05]
View answerThe areas eligible for funding under the Ireland-Northern Ireland INTERREG IIIA programme are specified in the Structural Funds regulatory framework governing the implementation of community initiative programmes approved by the European Commission. The planned restructuring of the inland fisheries sector will in no way impair the eligible Border regions from competing for or participating in appropriate cross-Border projects or initiatives.
