§ MR. MACFARLANEasked the Lord Advocate, If he will cause to be prepared and laid upon the Table a Return of all the Sheriffs' Clerks in Scotland, with their Salaries, and the names of those who, in addition to their official duties, are private land agents?
THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. J. B. BALFOUR)I have no objection to obtain and lay upon the Table of the House a Return specifying the Sheriff-Clerks who, in addition to their official duties, act as land agents; but I must decline to put the public to the expense of printing over again the remaining information asked for, as it already appears in a convenient form on pages 67 and 68 of the Finance Accounts in the hands of hon. Members.
