HC Deb 03 November 1909 vol 12 c1810
Mr. HUNT

asked the Lord Advocate why there is no native of the Outer Hebrides on the Congested Districts Board or on the Crofter Commission?

The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Alexander Ure)

The statutory conditions under which the appointments are made do not include any provision such as the hon. Member suggests.

Mr. HUNT

May I ask if it would not be more satisfactory to have one or two natives on these Commissions?
