In line with the 'bottom-up' approach to rural development under the Leader elements of the Rural Development Programme 2007-2013, the Local Action Groups (LAGs) are the principal decision-makers in relation to the allocation of project funding. Such decisions are made in the context of the local development strategy of the individual groups and in line with the Programme's Operating Rules and EU regulations. The LAG for the area referred to in the question is Mayo North East Leader Partnership (MNELP).

This project file was recently submitted to my Department for a review and this review will be completed shortly.
