Having regard to my ambit as Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism, no funding has been provided specifically to rural development and LEADER programmes. However, funding through the Department's Sports Capital Programme, the Local Authority Swimming Pools Programme and the Arts and Culture Capital Enhancement Scheme (ACCESS) benefits, on an ongoing basis, rural communities and rural development through the provision of local Sports and Arts infrastructure.
