§ MR. MACDONALD CAMERON (Wick Burghs)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in view of the very strong belief existing in many parts of Scotland that "commonty," or common lands, have been unjustly enclosed and appropriated by adjacent proprietors, he will recommend the issue of a Royal Commission to inquire into the circumstances and conditions under which such enclosures and appropriations have taken place?
§ * MR. W. H. SMITHMuch more specific information on this subject would be required than is contained in the question to justify the Government in considering the question of appointing a Royal Commission, but if such information is placed before us it will receive due attention.
§ MR. MACDONALD CAMERONI beg to give another notice that on an early day I intend to move a Resolution on the subject.
