asked whether any special procedure is adopted in the case of disputed land valuations affecting charitable trusts, to avoid the necessity for such trusts being involved in unnecessary expenses?

No special procedure is adopted in the case of valuations affecting charitable trusts, but every effort is being made to prevent such trusts being involved in unnecessary expenses.

Can special attention be given to the matter so as to obviate a repetition of a recent case in which one of these charitable trusts was involved in a large amount of costs?

I do not know of any particular case of difficulty. If the hon. Gentleman will send me particulars, I will have them looked into.
