Recital 38
(38) The LEADER approach for local development has, over a number of years, proven its utility in promoting the development of rural areas by fully taking into account the multi-sectoral needs for endogenous rural development through its bottom-up approach. LEADER should therefore be continued in the future and its application should remain compulsory for all rural development programmes. Already existing LEADER groups should be qualified as local action groups provided that these groups fulfil all requirements laid down in Articles 28, 29 and 30 of the Regulation [CPR].
