5The essential features of the Leader Programme, set out in the abovementioned notice (the ‘Leader notice’), are as follows:The public, private or mixed bodies which will act as local action groups are to be selected by the Member States and the Commission in ‘collaboration’, taking account inter alia of their local presence, the participation of leading figures in the local economy and society in their operation and the quality of the local development programme chosen (paragraphs 5 and 6).The eligible measures include those which are of direct benefit to the inhabitants and economic operators in each of the rural areas concerned, those concerning rural development groups and those facilitating the transnational operation of the groups (paragraphs 12 to 15).The Commission decision on the amount of Community assistance is to be taken in the light of the quality of the programmes prepared by the groups under the proposals submitted by the Member States, the extent of the rural part of those areas and the numbers of farmworkers and farms. In assessing the quality of programmes the Commission is to pay particular attention to the multiplier effect of the proposed measures and the extent to which the local population and economic operators are involved in the planning and management of the measures (paragraphs 17 and 18).Paragraph 22 of the notice provides for implementation of the initiative in the following terms: ‘The Member States may submit detailed proposals for ... grants ... within six months from the date of publication of this notice. The Commission will only take proposals received after that date into consideration in exceptional and duly justified cases’.
