John Kelly (Labour)

I welcome the Minister to the House. I was late so I ask to be forgiven if my questions were already put. I heard the Minister mention the Leader company in Senator Ó Clochartaigh's neck of the woods. When will that company be replaced? Is there any inter-measure in place at present for community groups that may have received approval under the old Leader company and are now not in a position to access funding, in particular those groups which are ready to act? I would appreciate any such information from the Minister.
