HC Deb 02 March 1896 vol 37 c1464
MR. MCLEOD

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether he proposes to introduce, during the present Session, any special legislation dealing with the evil of sheep stealing, which is alleged to be so prevalent in certain districts in Scotland?

THE LORD ADVOCATE

The subject is receiving the careful consideration of the Government, but no promise of legislation can be made.
