The Lands Tribunal for Scotland is a judicial body established in 1971 to determine a wide range of questions relating to valuation of land, the discharge or variation of restrictive land obligations and disputed compensation on compulsory purchase of land. Its members have recognised expertise in the fields of law and surveying.
Numerous Acts of Parliament have conferred additional areas of jurisdiction including appeals against the Keeper of the Registers of Scotland under the Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979 and disputes concerning council house purchase. Valuation Appeal Committees can refer complaints to the Tribunal over non-domestic rating assessments under the valuation acts and regulations. The Tribunal can also act as arbiter where a reference is brought jointly by disputing parties.
