The Southern Regional Assembly has a remit for the Southern Region of Ireland. It forges links between local, national and EU levels through regional and spatial planning and EU funding. We are responsible for the implementation of the Regional Spatial & Economic Strategy for the Southern Region, and an oversight role of the Region's local authority plans and participation in regional economic fora. We manage the ERDF Southern & Eastern Regional Operational Programme and are involved in the delivery of European Territorial Co-operation programmes, known as Interreg. We also participate in EU projects to facilitate access to a wealth of knowledge from other EU regions to develop better policy solutions to common regional challenges.The Southern Region is represented by 33 local councillors who are appointed as Members of the Regional Assembly for a 5-year term - 27 by their constituent local authorities, and 6 as Committee of the Regions representatives.
