	Bute House - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bute House is the official residence of the First Minister of Scotland, who is the head of the Scottish Executive, the country's devolved government created in 1999.
		The house was sold again in 1816 and a little over a century later, having changed hands several times, it became the property of the 4th Marquess of Bute.
		In 1966, the house, together with Nos 5 and 7, was conveyed to the National Trust for Scotland in lieu of duty on the estate of the 5th Marquess who had died in 1956.

		Until the establishment of the Scottish parliament, Bute House - which was built by the famous Edinburgh architect Robert Adam in 1792 - was used only occasionally, and some Secretaries of State almost ignored its existence.
		The Bute House Trust believes that since the property is now in almost continual use, the Executive should stump up a proper rent, especially as the latest figures show that the NTS has a £500,000 deficit.
		It’s a difficult house to quantify as far as rent goes because there are a lot of restrictions on what could be done.
