HC Deb 15 February 1881 vol 258 c1754
GENERAL SIR GEORGE BALFOUR

asked the Lord Advocate, Whether arrangements can now be made for obtaining the Annual Report of the Local Taxation of Scotland in a form corresponding to the Returns of Ireland, England, and Wales?

THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. J. M'LAREN)

The Returns referred to by my hon. Friend are made under the authority of statutes, and a Bill has been presented in the other House of Parliament to authorize the collection of corresponding Returns from Scotch local authorities.
