HC Deb 01 August 1924 vol 176 c2415W
Sir A. SINCLAIR

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he is aware that in the parish of Fan., in the county of Sutherland, crofters paying £3 rent per annum are being assessed at two-thirds of the full rental or annual value of their holdings and that those paying £1 per annum are being assessed at the full rental or annual value of their holdings; and whether he proposes to introduce legislation to amend the Law so that these crofters may obtain the full benefit intended to be conferred on agricultural owners and occupiers by The Agricultural Rates Act, 1923?

Mr. ADAMSON

I have no information on the subject, but if the hon. and gallant Member will give me particulars of specific cases, I will consider them.
