What is the Tipperary LECP?
Tipperary Local Community Development Committee has commenced a process to prepare a Local Economic and Community Plan (LECP) for the period 2023-2028. This plan will build on the learnings and achievements of the previous LECP, and it will seek to provide a strategic vision and framework for integrated and sustainable economic and community development across the county over the next five years. The plan will be evidence based and informed by extensive research and stakeholder consultation that is taking place over the period from April 2023 to September 2023.
Public Consultation
As part of the first step to inform our new plan, Tipperary County Council have prepared a draft Socio-Economic Statement. This document sets out the purpose of the LECP, the policy context that it is framed within, and provides key highlights on the socio-economic profile of Tipperary. Importantly, the Socio-Economic Statement provides a draft vision statement for the new LECP. To successfully attain this vision over the coming years, we have set ourselves a draft series of environmentally sustainable and progressive socio-economic high-level goals.
To inform the next LECP for the county, we want you to share with us your vision for Tipperary and provide feedback on our proposed goals to help us establish the key outcomes we will deliver across the key themes of climate action, community and local development, economic development, and health and wellbeing.
Your views will help to shape the direction the next Local Economic & Community Plan will take. Your submissions will be reviewed and summarised, and recommendations will be made in response to them. Your views will be published here on our portal.
To inform this process, our Socio-Economic Highlights Document is available as an attachment below.
