Places of Refuge for ships in trouble

As part of their assessment of the Minches, the DoT have to look at places where it may be possible to put ships in danger, whilst minimising the potential economic and environmental damage.

The Comhairle is a consultee to this process, and we will be making comments, but it is useful to place the public document into the public arena for more input from the public. All too often these are dealt with out of sight, and are not really "publicly" available.
