My new favourite Parliamentary amendment
Via Mark Valladares comes this gem from the Earl of Caithness:
Insert the following new Clause—
“Amendments to the Island Of Rockall Act 1972
(1) The Island Of Rockall Act 1972 is amended as follows.
(2) In section 1 (incorporation of Rockall into the United Kingdom as part of the County of Inverness), after first “shall” insert “for adminstrative purposes”.
(3) After section 1 insert—
“1A Ownership of Rockall
Rockall is owned by the United Kingdom and, in the event of Scotland leaving the United Kingdom, it shall be owned by the United Kingdom.””
A sensible precaution for any shipping forecast fans I’m sure.
