HC Deb 18 July 1974 vol 877 c266W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT a table showing the landholdings by acres of the Secretary of State, other Ministries, the Forestry Commission, local authorities, private landowners, private industry, nationalised industries, and owner-occupiers taken as a whole, respectively.

Mr. William Ross

This information is not held centrally and could not readily be assembled.

The extent of my own landholdings is approximately 2,292,400 acres of which 1,830,000 acres are vested in the Forestry Commission and most of the remainder held for agricultural purposes.
