§ Sir A. SINCLAIRasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether the occupants of the houses on the Wester Hailes Estate of the Department of Agriculture are to be agricultural tenants paying rates on house and land as one agricultural subject; or allotment holders paying rates on house and land separately, only the land being treated as an agricultural subject for the purpose of rating?
Mr. W. ADAMSONEach holding, including a house and steadiag, will be let as one agricultural subject, and I have no reason to doubt that for rating purposes it will be so treated.
