Extract from Scotland's PEople User Group minutes, 1 Feb 2008:

"After enquiring about the 1911 census which Paul said would be released on a date to be arranged in 2011, Alan asked about the 1931 census, which Steve said did exist in Scotland, and that the 1941 census did not take place"

this ref

suggests that it would only have been the England and Wales schedules that were burnt

Just wondering whether the 1931 census for Scotland was destroyed alongside the 1931 census for England & Wales or whether it survived?

Thanks in advance as I may not be able to respond until this evening, (Lunchbreak is nearly finished)
