One solution to that is to actually have some devolution. If there are people interested in taking responsibility for Scottish cultural outreach, then they could just be given a budget and left to get on with it (with some oversight from the board, of course).
An approach that gives you a real headache when someone makes the same request for London (on population grounds it makes sense). There is at the present time nowhere near the the level of activity for that kind of split to make sense. Even if we did have the numbers slits work far better if they cover areas that everyone in that area can access. A group that covered everything from Gretna to Thurso makes little sense.
