HC Deb 25 March 1901 vol 91 cc1106-7
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate if he will state how many crofters and cottars have been migrated with the assistance of the Congested Districts Board from the congested districts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland to other districts.

*MR. SCOTT DICKSON

If the hon. Member means me to state the number of cases in which crofters and cottars have been migrated from the congested districts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland to places outside the congested districts area, the answer is that there have been none; but there have been, and are, in course of progress migrations of crofters within the congested districts, particulars of which will appear in the -Report.

MR. WEIR

If the information is to be furnished with the Report of the Board, when will that Report be presented?

*MR. SCOTT DICKSON

I hope within two months.
