The Regional Government has authorised the Regional Directorate for Youth to incur costs of €2,550 for each of seven youth projects supported by the Social Innovation and Transformation Programme (PRINT). The total amount is €17,850, to fund programme contracts with the project promoters.

For each project, the orders provide for expenditure of €1,785 in 2026 and €765 in 2027. The amount allocated in each year may be increased by any balance carried over from the previous year.
