DR. CAMERON(for Mr. J. W. BARCLAY,), Forfarshireasked the Secretary for Scotland, Whether he can state the amount of rates collected in Skye, from crofters paying less than £30 of rent, during the recent occupation of the island by Her Majesty's Marine Forces?
§ THE SECRETARY FOR SCOTLAND (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR) (Manchester, E.)I told the hon. Gentleman the other day that I had not in my possession information which would enable me to distinguish between arrears of rate payable by one class of tenants and those paid by the other. I am afraid I cannot supplement that answer with any further useful information.
