291. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if and when funding under the Leader programme will be made available to a project (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20133/14]
View answerIn the context of the LEADER elements of the Rural Development Programme (RDP), projects that request funding of €150,000 or more require final approval from my Department after Local Development Company (LDC) Board approval. The assessment of these higher value projects usually involves detailed consultations between my Department and the relevant LDC which is the case with this application. I understand that the assessment of this project application will be completed shortly.
