Motion S1M-00342: Irene McGugan, North East Scotland, Scottish National Party, Date Lodged: 01/12/1999

Scots in the 2001 Census

That the Parliament gives its support to the demands of the Scots Language Society academic bodies and others for a question regarding Scots in the National Census of 2001 and considers that such a question is the only way of finding the information necessary in order to further the planning of a national policy for Scots in schools, broadcasting and other areas of the public life in Scotland.
