Funding under the LEADER programme is not allocated on the basis of electoral areas. LEADER funding for the 2007-2013 programming period was provided through individual Local Action Groups for the areas identified in their local development strategies. Funding under the LEADER 2014-2020 programme is allocated to sub-regional areas.
Table 1 below details the funding provided from 2011 to 2015 under the 2007-2013 LEADER programme, broken down by Local Action Group.
Table 2 provides details of payments made to each of the 28 sub-regional areas for the period 2015 and 2016 under the 2014-2020 LEADER programme in respect of preparatory support.
