In Ireland, the approach to regional development was restructured in 2015 with the introduction of three Regional Assemblies. Under Project Ireland 2040, and specifically through the Regional Spatial and Economic Strategies, the three Regional Assemblies play a leadership role in supporting the delivery of national objectives and are at the forefront of best practice across a number of areas in this regard. The Assemblies have become vehicles for both securing and brokering critical investment, strategic policy-making and are key advocates for their constituent communities (both urban and rural).
The Association of Irish Regions is the representative body of the three Regional Assemblies in Ireland EMRA NWRA SRA
