Heritage Lottery Fund, Burns Night
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the Heritage Lottery Fund's celebration of Burns, which has resulted in a previously unpublished letter from Burns being found and published; understands that the letter was written in 1794 and was sent by Burns to the actress, Elizabeth Kemble, bringing to light a friendship that was previously unknown; welcomes the involvement of over 1,000 schoolchildren in the north east in a Heritage Lottery Fund project, which has introduced them to Burns and his contemporaries, and the publishing of the letter in the book, Enlightened Burns, and looks forward to celebrating Burns Night for years to come.
