Leisure is last on the list but is absolutely essential for mental well-being. If someone is effectively cut off from evening events or meetings, they will find themselves socially cut off - in some cases completely. This applies to people of all ages from teenagers to the elderly. Young children will also be affected if it is no longer possible for them to attend matinee showings of popular films, or other events targeted at the very young.

All workers must live in Stornoway area or work 9-5? Will lead to higher unemployment and even more demand for housing in Stornoway (if people who work don't just move away). Islands to be only for rich people to live in? They still need their services provided. Not a very forward thinking decision.
