HC Deb 25 March 1913 vol 50 cc1486-7W
Sir GEORGE YOUNGER

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he is aware that, in connection with the preparation of the register of small holdings, schedules are being issued to tenants who do not come within the provisions of the Small Landholders Act; and whether any obligation rests upon such tenants to fill up the schedule?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

Section 33 (1) of the Act of 1911 provides that the register shall include small holdings, whether held by landholders or statutory small tenants or not, throughout Scotland. The term "small holding" is defined in Section 33 (2) of the Act. The answer to the last part of the question is in the negative.
