My Department is currently concluding the selection of LEADER local development strategies. I expect to issue the first contracts to Local Action Groups in the coming weeks as discussions on contract and implementation arrangements are concluded.
Funding will commence under the programme, including for the organisations referred to in the Question, as contracts are signed with the respective Local Action Groups. Any group or start-up business looking for support should liaise directly with the Local Action Group for their area.
