asked the Secretary for Scotland to what use the sum of £4,000 per annum has been put which has been set aside under the Land Settlement (Scotland) Act, 1919, for the encouragement of allotments in Scotland?

Mr. MUNRO

The Board of Agriculture for Scotland are in course of appointing a number of horticultural instructors whose duties will consist in working in collaboration with local authorities and allotment holders for the purpose of asssting them in the management and development of allotments and advising them on questions arising out of the Allotments Acts. Details of the Board's proposals will be made public without delay.
