North West Regimental Review (EDM259)

North West Regimental Review

EDM number 259 in 2004-05, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 01/12/2004.

That this House notes with satisfaction that, in compliance with the Ministry of Defence requirement and following exhaustive deliberation, the three Infantry regiments of the North West have agreed to form a large regiment and have all accepted that it should be entitled 'The Royal Lancashire Regiment'; welcomes this title's recognition that the new regiment, carrying the traditions of no fewer than six of Lancashire's old regiments, will depend on the historic County Palatine for well over 90 per cent. of its soldiers; and calls on the Ministry of Defence to form a Royal Lancashire Regiment of two regular and two volunteer battalions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 24 MPs.
