Could someone take a look at William Davidson of Curriehill? Was he member of the Scottish Privy Council? Taksen (talk) 13:28, 9 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Where did it meet?

edit

The article states that after 1660 the council met in London, but also that it met in Holyroodhouse until the Act of Union. These statements are mutually contradictory, and some reconciliation is needed. Did the council meet mostly in London and occasionally at Holyroodhouse? Or is one the statements flat out wrong?

1708

edit

Many sources say the Privy Council of Scotland was abolished by the Parliament of Great Britain in 1708 and thereafter there was one Privy Council of Great Britain in London. However, none of the sources say the Privy Council of England was abolished. I adjusted the wording of the article to be consistent with the sources, for example [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6].
