HC Deb 13 June 1907 vol 175 cc1606-7
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland if he will consider the expediency of asking the Lewis District Committee to submit a list of cottars and others resident in the townships in the Island of Lewis who would be willing to migrate to the mainland if the Congested Districts Board arranged reasonable aid for their settlement.

MR. HERBERT SAMUEL (for Mr. SINCLAIR)

As my right hon. friend has already informed my hon. friend on previous occasions, any proposals made to the Congested Districts Board will receive their careful consideration.
