Have the islanders asked that it would revert to what it was before the most recent LEADER situation whereby there would be one parcel and local action group for the islands? Ultimately, we have to follow EU law but I doubt whether EU law would preclude the Department from doing something sensible such as having the islands as one parcel. After that, it will be for the Minister to make up her mind. It does not take a heap of time. It certainly did not take me a heap of time to make up my mind.
