ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

We would like to thank the project team of the Records of the Parliaments of Scotland for their help with the timeline.
The Records of the Parliaments of Scotland to 1707 (RPS) is a fully searchable database containing the proceedings of the Scottish parliament from the first surviving act of 1235 to the union of 1707. The culmination of over ten years work by researchers from the Scottish Parliament Project based in the School of History at the University of St Andrews, the online edition seeks to make this key historical resource freely available to all in a technologically advanced and user-friendly format.
