§ Mr. Buchanan-Smithasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what estimate he has made of the increase in cost to agriculture in a full year of the rating of intensive livestock units.
§ Mr. RossThe total rates payable in 1966–67 in respect of intensive livestock units situated on farms and assessed for rating in that year are estimated at £115,000. As very few units were assessed in earlier years, this can be taken as the increase in costs to agriculture.
