Scottish Borders

EDM number 2416 in 1992-93, proposed by David Steel on 26/07/1993.

That this House, noting the unanimous decision of Conservative-controlled Berwickshire District Council to reject the Scottish Office plans to remove Berwickshire from the Borders Region and amalgamate it in a new local authority with part of East Lothian, calls on the Secretary of State for Scotland to review his proposals before publishing a Bill and to respect the geographic, historic, cultural and administrative integrity of the Borders.

This motion has been signed by a total of 11 MPs.
