HC Deb 09 July 1889 vol 337 c1830
MR. MARK STEWART (Kirkcudbrightshire)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether the Government next Session will take into consideration the inequality of the law relating to Fiars Courts in Scotland, in order to obtain a better and more uniform system of striking corn and other averages than at present prevails?

* THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. J. P. B. ROBERTSON,) Bute

I am unable to give any undertaking upon the subject for next Session, but I shall carefully consider whether the existing system may not be improved in the direction indicated by my hon. Friend.
