My Department has allowed LEADER project promoters’ contracts to be extended to the 30 September 2014. If an extension of time is required beyond that point it is a matter for the relevant Local Action Group (LAG) to present an argument on a case by case basis to my Department outlining the circumstances. In any event no extension will be granted beyond the end of November 2014 , as LAG contracts expire at end of December 2014.
