[Dnsmasq-discuss] DNSMASQ fails to start on boot

I am running DNSMASQ on a Raspberry Pi 3 using Debian Jessie. I am running the 
Pi as a WAP (and standalone web server etc) (Great arrangement for a trade show 
incidentally).

If I start the service manually, all works well. When it trys to start at boot time the 
service terminates with an error 2 (network not available or some such).

I found a discussion talking about the same problem on Ubuntu but the 
recommended fix did not work for me :-(
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1531184

It is a case of DNSMASQ starting before the network is ready.

Any suggestions please?
