HC Deb 03 August 1926 vol 198 cc2785-6
18. Sir ALEXANDER SPROT

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether any churches or manses have been handed over by the heritors to the general trustees of the Church of Scotland, according to Section 28 of the Church of Scotland (Property and Endowment.) Act, 1925; and, if so, how many?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I am informed that no churches or manses have as yet been transferred from the heritors to the general trustees, but that there are now several cases where applications to the sheriff for the requisite certificates under the Act will shortly be made.
