Crofters Commission Applications

As the Government regulator, crofters and landlords will have regular dealings with the Crofters Commission. Macleod & MacCallum can provide expert assistance with all types of regulatory procedures and applications including:-

• Decrofting – of a statutory house site, part croft or whole croft
• Assignation or letting of a tenancy – either to a family member or to an individual outwith the family
• Apportionment and related common grazings matters
• Bequest of a croft tenancy
• Procedure upon intestacy
• Division of a croft
• Exchange of croft land
• Creation of new crofts
• Subletting

The Crofting Reform (Scotland) Act 2007 made fairly significant changes to the way in which the Commission carries out its regulatory functions. For more information on the 2007 Act please read our Client Briefing.
