HC Deb 01 March 1905 vol 142 c19
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord-Advocate whether the Secretary for Scotland has now received a copy of resolutions unanimously adopted at a recent meeting of crofter leaseholders and other tenants on the Culloden Estate, in the Ferintosh district of Ross-shire, deploring the continued exclusion of lease-holders from the benefits of the Crofters Act, and urging that all tenants whose rents do not exceed £30 per annum should receive the benefits of the Act; and will he state what action it is proposed to take in the matter.

MR. SCOTT DICKSON

The Secretary for Scotland is indebted to the hon. Member for a copy of the resolutions referred to, but he does not feel under any obligation to take action in this matter.
