The Scottish Land Commission marked its first anniversary on 1 April.

Over the past year the land reform body has undertaken a number of reviews including those which look into the impact and scale of land ownership as well as opportunities for improving access to land for new entrants to farming.

It aims to ensure land reform benefits those in both rural and urban communities. Chair Andrew Thin said: “The Commission is working to increase understanding that the people of Scotland do have a say in the way land around them is owned, managed and used.”
