Federal location
As Bundesausbauort selected central were places in economically weak areas of the Federal Republic refers to the development of federal aid should be particularly promoted. More extensive funding measures were dealt with under the term federal funding area .
The primary aim was to create new and secure existing commercial jobs. For this purpose, companies were offered low-interest loans that were relocating to the federal subsidy areas. In the outskirts of the zone and in the federal development areas, these loans were also available for the rationalization and expansion of already established businesses. For these tasks, the budget of the regional funding program was supplemented by funds from the ERP special fund and the Federal Agency for Employment and Unemployment Insurance (BAVAV).
In addition, the municipalities and other regional authorities received grants and low-interest loans from the regional funding program for the development of industrial sites, for the construction of vocational schools and for other general infrastructure measures, insofar as these were directly related to the commercial development in the economically weak areas . But tourism, certain parts of the handicrafts and agriculture were also directly benefited by the regional support program. Finally, several replacement settlements were promoted in so-called industrial problem areas (for example in Saarland) in order to contribute to loosening up the one-sided and therefore particularly crisis-sensitive structure of certain areas.
The coordination between the federal government and the federal states in promoting the economically weak parts of the Federal Republic of Germany should be ensured by the fact that the individual measures of the regional funding program were proposed by the federal states and implemented according to guidelines issued by the Interministerial Committee for Regional Economic Policy. The federal and state governments also coordinated the respective regional political actions.
