Investigation of potential land value tax policy - options for Scotland
2018
The University of Reading has been appointed by the Scottish Land Commission (SLC) to conduct
research to assess, with reference to international experience, the potential of land value taxation to
contribute to a more productive, accountable and diverse pattern of land ownership and use in
Scotland and to identify a set of potential policy options that merit further consideration by the SLC.
The current research is part of a broader agenda to reform the system of land ownership and the
functioning of the land market in Scotland, and to reshape the role of the public sector in taking a
more proactive stance in delivering development in the public interest. Adjustments in the
mechanisms for land and property taxation will be an essential piece of the puzzle in delivering this
vision.
