Details of the amounts approved and paid out by the Local Enterprise Offices (LEOs) at end 2014 and 2015 are set out in a table. Once a project application is approved, funding can then be drawn down by the client over a specified period of time in accordance with appropriate terms and conditions set out by the LEO. There is no direct correlation between approvals and payments in a particular year. The approvals are the amounts approved for projects in the year in question and can be drawn down that year or in subsequent years and the paid amounts can represent drawdowns against the approvals in the year in question or in previous years.
