Table 1 below provides a breakdown of the expenditure by project and administration costs under the 2007-2013 LEADER programme for each of the years 2007-2013, as of 31st December each year.
Table 2 below provides the number and value of project approvals under the 2007-2013 LEADER programme for each of the years 2007-2013, as of 31st December each year.
It will be noted that no projects were approved, or expenditure incurred, in the first two years of the programming period. LEADER is an EU-wide programme and, as can often be the case with such programmes, activity increases progressively over the course of the programme period.
