Buíochas linn le Barry Cowen agus Cllr. Sean Broderick as bualadh le chéile chun plé a dhéanamh ar thábhacht LEADER. Tá an clár LEADER, a mhaoinítear tríd an gComhbheartas Talmhaíochta, bunaithe ar chur chuige áitiúil ‘ón mbun aníos’ agus aithníonn sé an éagsúlacht idir ceantair thuaithe agus an tábhacht a bhaineann le tionscadail a chur in oiriúint chun freastal ar riachtanais áitiúla.
