Will the Minister impress on the Department the need to examine the funding allocations for the offshore islands as well? They are at an even greater disadvantage, with Brexit impacting on them directly. It is possible the larger fishing ports and so on will take up all the funding that is available under the Brexit adjustment reserve fund, but it has to go wider than that. The islands have made a detailed submission to the various county councils to seek that funding and that should be taken on board and seriously examined.
