HC Deb 18 February 1914 vol 58 cc950-1
67. Major HOPE

asked whether the right hon. Gentleman has yet made any inquiry into the conditions under which the small tenants at Murieston, Midlothian, hold their land from the Scottish Local Government Board; and whether he will consider the advisability of referring their rent to the Scottish Land Court for revision?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

The matter is now under discussion between the Local Government Board for Scotland and the Edinburgh Distress Committee, from whom the tenants hold their land.
