To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if any agreement or progress has been made between his Department and the Inspectorate of the Leader Programme with regard to the finalising of the MFG legacy projects when documentation relating to the decision making process cannot be located; if he will provide an update on one such project (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department has issued advice to the relevant Local Development Companies contracted to deliver Axes 3&4 in Gaeltacht areas on how to progress MFG legacy projects where issues have arisen in relation to missing or inadequate documentation. This will assist the Groups in their decision making process and facilitate the submission of claims for payment where appropriate. In relation to the project referred to in the question, I understand that the promoter involved is expected to submit a claim to Donegal Local Development Company in the very near future. Once the relevant claim has been submitted, it will be reviewed and processed in line with normal procedures.
