Future of Land Reform in Scotland
The question of land reform has long been an issue in economic ethics but has now taken on a new dimension in the context of environmental sustainability. There is a moral tension in the right to hold land and in the way that it is used and shared by all people. The SEC therefore welcomes this consultation on the future of land reform in Scotland as part of defining the vision and process of developing a democratically accountable and transparent system of land rights.
