MR. DUNDAS WHITE (Dumbartonshire)To ask the Secretary for Scotland, with reference to the site of 6,886 square yards at Holmlea, Cathcart Bridge, purchased in April by the Cathcart School Board for £3,270 17s., if he will say what was the actual amount by which the annual value for rating of the larger subject of which it formed part has been reduced by reason of the severance there from of that purchased site.
(Answered by Mr. Sinclair.) As other portions of the larger subject have been feued besides the portion under discussion the only reply I can give to my hon. friend is that the reduction in the rateable value is calculated at the proportional figure of £2 9s. 10d. per acre, or £3 10s. 10d. for the site referred to.
