Historical Background

In March 1800 John Opie had brought a motion before the General Assembly relating to a major project to memorialise "National Glory". This was referred to the Council which sent the proposal straight back to the General Assembly in order to take business forwards (this was, strictly speaking, counter to the consitution).
