Official signing of the Rural Development Programme (LEADER) contracts took place on Thursday 29th January 2009, in Croke Park, Dublin.  This now allows for work to begin on getting the new programme up and running in the next few weeks.  Two information nights will take place in February to provide information on the roll out of the programme and further information on these will be uploaded to the website when available.
