A new page. Hope other dominoes fall sooner than later. Nothing personal, as you emphasized. Often it takes years and some horrendous event to get things on the radar screen of high up politicos and bureaucrats: the only question then is whether there is a full sweep or merely one goat sacrificed.

If you send a team to do one person's work either the job is too much for one person or else or this is overmanning of the highest order - or in this PC age should that be overpersonning?

I hope, Calumannabel, that the entire toplayer of management is being taken over there.

Hello calum: if they are doing it according to form, the team may include an acting, plus the others should be tough minded specialists looking at the various parts of the administration. If this is the case, the ideal result would be a detailed list of steps to be taken, personnel changes to be made, a time line and monitoring mechanisms. Whether the recommendations are then accepted/implemented by the headquarters honchos is the central question. The tactic for the locals is to keep it all under the glare of publicity until the results are achieved.

Dear mjc Haven't you been warned about talking about sacrificing goats on this website - it gets the folk from Carloway unduly excited. Remember it's not that long since we weaned them off human sacrifices.

Was he in hospital? perhaps he realised how bad things had got as a patient

HS2, he wasn't in hospital. He ostensibly couldn't match his business and personal affairs with being a health board chairman. Fiddlesticks!

Ooh weeel, calum., so long as there is no transfat, and plenty of garlic is used, I see no objection. Do you?!! If Tiny Tim is correct ("you are what you eat"), human sacrifices make sense (more sense than eating quail or chicken, not to mention frogs and snails). No reason why the meats covered under the term "venison" could not be extended (historically, de facto, it has been anyway), What all the above has got to do with the Western Isles Health Board and its duly departed Chairman escapes me (so far)....

I have been in Lewis since late 2004 and am observing life on this fascinating island from an outsider's perspective. I look out at the lighthouse every day - as it looks out over the island and the sea.
