Mr. Corrie
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has now considered the representations put to him by the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities that the partial rating revaluation proposed for 1983–84 should be postponed.
Mr. Younger
I have re-examined the position in the light of the convention's representations and have decided not to proceed with the partial revaluation. I shall shortly lay before Parliament an order to postpone the revaluation and to revoke the Valuation (Scotland) Order 1982.
