Tayside

Tayside

Tayside ("Taobh Tatha" in Gaelic) was a local government region of Scotland from May 15 1975 to March 31 1996. It was created by the 1973 Act following recommendations made by the 1969 Wheatley Report which attempted to replace the mishmash of counties, cities, burghs and districts, with a uniform two-tier system of regional and district councils. Following the 1994 Local Government Act, it is now divided into the council areas of Perth and Kinross, Angus, and the City of Dundee, which had previously been the region's districts.

Tayside continues to have a joint police service, fire service, and electoral, valuation, and health boards.
