The new Rural Development Programme for Ireland for the 2007-13 period was approved by the European Commission on July 24th this year and is available on my Department's website at www.pobail.ie. The selection process for the Local Action Groups (LAGs) to deliver the Programme will commence shortly. In this context, the Deputy should note that my Department has appointed an independent advisor to make recommendations on the selection of the LAGs.
