Delegates at the annual Crofting Law Group conference held in Portree last Friday (21 September) were shown progress towards the new Crofting Register.
The creation of a map-based record of crofts as one of the national Registers of Scotland is amongst several recent crofting law reforms. Others include the winding-up of the Crofters Commission after 56 years and the establishment of a partly-elected Crofting Commission, which came into being last April.
