Apologies for cross-posting This afternoon The First Minister made a statement to Parliament about the Scottish Government's Legislative Programme for the coming year. In it Mr Salmond included proposals to introduce a Public Records (Scotland) Bill, marking a major milestone in our project to achieve new public records legislation and update the existing 1937 Act. The First Minister's statement will be available in the Official Report on the Scottish Parliament website tomorrow, see http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/business/officialReports/index.htm. ******************************************** Jenny McDermott Public Records Bill Team National Archives of Scotland West Register House 17a Charlotte Square Edinburgh EH2 4DJ 0131 5351438 e: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> w: www.nas.gov.uk<http://www.nas.gov.uk/> P please don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
