§ Mr. Wallaceasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what the sale price was for the farm, No. 9 Stove, Sanday, Orkney, sold by him on 30 September 1981; and whether this sum represented a discount on the district valuer's price.
§ Mr. John MacKayIt is not the practice of my right hon. Friend to disclose individual sale prices. In accordance with the policy for the sale of such holdings to sitting tenants the price represented 30 per cent. of the open market vacant possession value as assessed by the district valuer.
