A half quotation is very often grossly misleading. What I said was that if a landlord ceases to have a tenant the benefit goes to the landlord. The point on which we were not agreed is whether a new tenant gets the benefit or not. Our view is that he will.
The proceedings referred to by the hon. Member were taken in the Police Court, Port Glasgow, at the instance of the Burgh Prosecutor, who was not acting under instructions issued by me.
I have no reason to think that this was issued through any political feelings at all.
