Rule 2(2) raises the fee for applications to the Lands Tribunal for Scotland (“the Lands Tribunal”) described in item 6 of schedule 2 of the 1971 Rules, from £52 to £150.

The fee specified in item 42 is for making an appeal to the Lands Tribunal under regulation 18(1) of the Right to Buy Land to Further Sustainable Development (Applications, Written Requests, Ballots and Compensation) (Scotland) Regulations 2020.
