Sabbath sailing decision delayed

A decision on whether a ferry service should sail to the Isle of Lewis on Sundays has been deferred for the second time.

The controversial issue had been due to come before the board of ferry operator Caledonian MacBrayne this month, having previously been postponed in December.

But CalMac confirmed the debate would not take place until at least March.

About 4,000 residents of Lewis and Harris have signed a petition against Sunday sailings.
