The person named is not registered to participate in the Knowledge Transfer Programme. Knowledge Transfer Facilitators were required to register participants in their Knowledge Transfer  Groups in the eight week period to 14 July 2016.

At present there is no decision to re-open the Knowledge Transfer Programme. However, in common with other measures under the Rural Development Programme, monitoring of targets and associated budgets is ongoing over the life of the Programme, in conjunction with the annual estimates process.
