Scottish Land Commission

We established the Scottish Land Commission on 1 April 2017, after the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2016 came into force. Its remit is to review the effectiveness and impact of our laws and policies relating to land, and to make recommendations to Scottish Ministers on future land reform. They are undertaking a wide programme of engagement with the public in urban and rural Scotland on priorities for land reform, and work to support good practice in land ownership, management and use.
