ABSTRACT
As the last chapter showed, the path of integration of purposes in water management in Scotland has been towards wider social and economic considerations rather than towards the interrelationships of the hydrological cycle. It follows that any expansion in the range of choice of strategies for the individual functions will be evident within each of the three aspects of water management featured in this book rather than in terms of relationships between functions. In this chapter, therefore, developments in each aspect are discussed in turn.
