§ 15. Mr. TRAINasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he proposes to introduce legislation for Scotland on the same lines as the Landlord and Tenant Act for England and Wales?
§ Mr. JOHNSTONI am considering this matter, but I am not in a position to hold out any prospects of legislation during the present Session.
§ Mr. TRAINIs the hon. Gentleman aware that there is considerable dissatisfaction among shopkeepers and business-people that they are not getting a fair deal, and that people in England and Wales are much better off than they are; and will he do something to remove this grievance?
§ Mr. SCRYMGEOURIs the hon. Gentleman aware of the strong feeling of many of the shopkeepers about this injustice?
§ Mr. JOHNSTONWe are aware that there is some dissatisfaction in the matter, but the only point at the moment is the question of Parliamentary time.
