Areas such as Wexford, Kilkenny and places in the south east did not get the level of support they required. It is important that we re-evaluate what is being done. I accept the work of CEDRA will be important for rural development but we must acknowledge the regional disparities that exist. More must be done to ensure that where we have high levels of unemployment above the national average we focus on it and ensure it is part of the remit of CEDRA’s work.
