22. Duchess of ATHOLL

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what steps he is taking to reduce bracken?

Sir G. COLLINS

The committee appointed last year to test the possibility of controlling the spread of bracken by improved methods of cutting and spraying have not yet been able to arrive at a definite opinion on the merits of the various methods employed, and they propose to continue experiments in the current year.
