The CLÁR programme 2019

 (Ceantair Laga Árd-Riachtanais) is a targeted investment programme which provides funding for small scale infrastructural projects in rural areas that have suffered the greatest levels of population decline. The aim of CLÁR is to support the sustainable development of identified CLÁR areas by attracting people to live and work there.  The funding works in conjunction with local funding and on the basis of locally identified priorities.

Measure 1:    Support for Schools/Community Safety measures
Measure 2:    Play Areas (including Multi-Use Games Areas)
Measure 3:    Community Wellbeing Supports (new in 2019), comprising of:
