I can only assume that the CAA-approval for the discrete procedures which were previously used by Loganair has been transfered to Gamma. To my knowledge, these procedures have never been available to public transport flights other than CAT A ambulance/SAR flights.
The scheduled Saab 340/Twin Otter flights into Islay, Campbeltown, Barra and Tiree have never been VFR only. The instrument procedures are available to them too.
