HC Deb 18 November 1919 vol 121 cc797-8
39. Mr. HOGGE

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he can furnish the name and address of one ex-Service man placed by the Board of Agriculture on lands acquired under the Small Holdings Colonies Acts, 1916–18, the rent of whose holding has been fixed and the buildings and other equipment completed; and whether he can state the area of such holding, the rent of the land and buildings, the name of the scheme, and the estate where such holding completely equipped can be inspected?

The SECRETARY for SCOTLAND (Mr. Munro)

Yes, Sir; Samuel Gibson is in occupation of holding No. 20 on Castle Huntly estate, Longforgan. The holding extends to 50 acres. The equipped rent is 40s. per acre.

Mr. HOGGE

Will my right hon. Friend give the name of a second.

Mr. MUNRO

I have answered the question on the Paper. There are, I understand, 100 more settlers who will be settled on the land this month.
