§ Sir J. Duncanasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received about the way in which the Crofters' Commission carries out its duties; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MaclayI naturally receive a number of representations with regard to the operations of the Crofters' Commission. Where a body carries out duties of a public nature involving questions of judgment, this is to be expected.
I should, however, make it clear that on no occasion have I received evidence that the Commission has at any time acted otherwise than conscientiously and with complete integrity.
