Crofters Commission report            28/9/11

The Crofters Commission has issued its Annual Report for 2010/11.

For the Commission’s Chief Executive, Nick Reiter, this has been an important year.

He said: "Although the Crofting Reform (Scotland) Act 2010 was not for the most part in force during the year, its passage kick-started a period of preparation for some very significant changes, including the updating of the Register of Crofts, in preparation for the election of Commissioners to the new Crofting Commission; as well as preparing for the role as a key agency in the local development plan process with local authorities and in due course as a statutory consultee on certain planning applications involving croft land. So it has made for a very busy year. Staff have risen to the challenge and it is thanks to them we will be ready to meet the new demands on the organisation.”

Paying tribute to Assessors, Convener, Drew Ratter said: “the development of the assessors network is extremely encouraging both in commitment and the level of debate. Continuing with this is certainly something I commend to our successor body.”

He added: “It has been a very active and varied year with everyone, SGRPID Area Offices, Assessors, Commissioners and staff working together to meet the challenges and deliver our services in the most effective and efficient manner.”
