§ Mr. MaclennanTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will bring forward legislation to allow crofters access to the farm woodland scheme through planting on common grazings.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonMy right hon. and learned Friend is awaiting confirmation that legislation which would allow crofters to participate in the planting of commercial woodlands on common grazings would be acceptable to all crofting interests. It is not possible to say when such legislation might be introduced.
