§ 105. Mr. William Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a table in the OFFICIAL REPORT showing the annual percentage increase in land prices in urban areas in Scotland for each of the last five years; and what steps he is taking to curb these increases.
§ Mr. Gordon CampbellThis information is not available, as the particular statistics required have not been collected or kept during the last five years.
