HC Deb 24 February 1896 vol 37 c949
MR. J. G. WEIR

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury, whether the Government intends to bring in a Bill to deal with the available grazing and agricultural land (nearly two million acres) referred to in the Report of the Deer Forest Commission?

THE LORD ADVOCATE

Without committing myself to the statistical view implied in this question, I may say the Government have no intention of legislating in regard to the matter referred to during the present Session of Parliament; but, in common with other questions affecting the Highlands of Scotland, it is the subject of careful consideration.
