THE SECRETARY FOR SCOTLAND (Lord BALFOUR of BURLEIGH)

The object of these Amendments is to put the manse in the same position as the church as regards the site if the municipal authority of a city or town desire to acquire it for an open space. It was agreed in the Standing Committee that the Amendments should be made, and I now propose them.

Question put.

Amendments agreed to.
