lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the Irish Minister for the Environment and Local Government is re-examining the structure of the local action groups implementing the rural development programme. There has been talk that the local action groups will be integrated into the local authorities. While no concrete proposals have been announced, in my experience any proposal to integrate the local action groups into the local authority structure would be both legally problematic and ineffective. Such a move would override the LEADER programme’s bottom-up approach based on the independence group’s best ability to identify and respond to needs on the ground. I fail to see how a bureaucratic structure such as a local authority would suit it. Moreover partial integrations such as the integration of enterprise functions into the local authorities would disrupt the coherent approach envisaged by the rural development programme. The Commission should strongly discourage any such move by national authorities in relation to the rural development programme."@en1
