DEVON AND DORSET REGIMENT

Early day motion 326, tabled 7 December 2004 by Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 7 members.

That this House notes the long history of the Devon and Dorset regiments starting from their formation in 1685 through the Boer War, The First World War and as one of the regiments to land on the Normandy beaches in the first wave on D-Day; and supports the calls for the regiment to retain its links with the far South West in the proposed reorganisation.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 5, UUP 2.
