An emergency meeting to support the community-led Donegal Local Development Company is to be held this evening.
Donegal Local Development Company Ltd. (DLDC) is a well-established Local Development Company with a proven track record in the delivery of major funding programmes:
• Rural Development Programme LEADER
• Local Community and Development Programme
• Volunteer Programme, Donegal Volunteer Centre
• Countryside Recreation Scheme
• Traveller Job Coach Initiative Scheme • Rural Social Scheme
• Tús Programme
• CE Childcare Scheme
• Jobs Initiative Scheme
• The Job Club
Donegal Local Development Company Ltd. is an independent, not for profit, community-led Local Development Company and its services to you are now under threat.
The government plans to put DLDC’s work under the control of a Donegal County Council-led committee or to private contractors with profit rather than community driven aims.
The meeting, which takes place in the Finn Valley Centre at 7pm is expected to be attended by a number of local politicians and lction candidates.
Election candidates are expected to be asked the following questions at the meeting:
1. Do you support the government’s Alignment plans to deprive DLDC of community programme delivery?
2. What will you do to make sure that the 415 jobs in DLDC are not lost because of these plans?
3. What will you do to make sure that DLDC continues to deliver independent community-led local development in Donegal?
DLDC Mission Statement: “Working in Donegal towards a better future for all”
