Adams, D. (2015) Urban Land Reform Briefing Paper No 5: Explaining Statutory Rights of Pre-Emption. Discussion Paper. Policy Scotland, University of Glasgow, Glasgow.

Abstract

This is one of six briefing papers prepared by Professor David Adams of the University of Glasgow to help explain key proposals for urban land reform made in 2014 by the Scottish Government’s Land Reform Review Group (LRRG) to whom he acted as an independent adviser. This paper focuses on the LRRG’s recommendation “that the Scottish Government and local authorities should have a right to register a statutory right of pre-emption over land where that is in the public interest” (see pages 44-45 of the LRRG report).
