MR. NEWDEGATE

asked the Lord Advocate, Whether it is the intention of Her Majesty's Government, now that the Law of Death-bed has been repealed, to introduce any measure for the limitation or restraint of the alienation of property in Scotland, whether real or personal, in mortmain?

THE LORD ADVOCATE

, in reply, said, he was not at that moment able to give an answer to the hon. Gentleman's Question. The subject was under consideration, and he hoped he would have it in his power before long to give the hon. Member the information he required.
