Abstract:
At the last meeting of Council of this Society, Mr. Jonathan Pim, made a suggestion that the recently published series of essays obtained by the Cobden Club on Local Government and Local Taxation in England, Scotland, Ireland, and other countries, presented a great body of information, as to which it would be valuable to institute comparisons between the institutions and laws in force in Ireland, and in other countries. In accordance with that suggestion, I have selected from the very able and comprehensive essay of Mr. MacNeel Caird, on Scotland, the following four points for comparing the results he has stated as to Scotland, with the corresponding questions as to Ireland : (1) Road Authorities in Scotland and Ireland ; (2) Scotch and Irish Local Courts; (3) Union Rating; (4) The Scotch Law for securing improvements in Town Holdings.
