Results of SACN / SFSA meeting with the Scottish Executive

[seaside]

At our meeting with the John Brown, Head of Tourism and Architecture Policy Division and Frank Strang, Head of Sea Fisheries Division of the Scottish Executive last week they committed to following up with their understanding of the points discussed and actions agreed.

 

We are pleased to say that we got their email today; it contained four principle areas. To faciltate discussion and ensure no feedback is lost, we'll address each area in seperate postings with the relevant extracts from their email and the odd bit of commentary by ourselves.

 

Thanks to all of you who made the effort in the email campaign which was undoubtably critical in helping set the process in motion; thanks also to those who provided input directly, sometimes very directly :-) .

 

Their email closes with " ...John and I welcomed the renewed dialogue which this meeting symbolised. We suggested – and you agreed – that there should be a further meeting in the not too distant future – perhaps once the initial results from the study have emerged."

 

The results so far have exceeded our initial expectations, BUT, it is only the start of the process. We shall continue to update accordingly.
