The Scottish Crofting Federation (SCF) has welcomed the recently published SNP manifesto pledges which respond to the ‘Five Actions for Crofting’ issued by the Federation in the run-up to the Scottish elections.
SCF Chair, Fiona Mandeville, said, “Having issued our ‘Five Actions for Crofting’, a challenge to all parties at the start of the Scottish election campaign, we are delighted to see that the SNP has taken note and responded with pledges on all we asked for. The priorities we published are: target financial incentives; simplify crofting legislation; make crofts available; increase affordable croft housing and deliver crofting development.
