Lord Lieutenant of Inverness
- Lord Lieutenant of Inverness
The Lord-Lieutenant of Inverness, is the British monarch's personal representative in an area which has been defined since 1975 as consisting of the local government districts of Inverness, Badenoch and Strathspey, and Lochaber, in Scotland, and this definition was renewed by the Lord-Lieutenants (Scotland) Order 1996. [ [http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si1996/Uksi_19960731_en_1.htm "The Lord-Lieutenants (Scotland) Order 1996", OPSI website, accessed 18 April 2008] ] The area of the lieutanancy was previously the county of Inverness, which was abolished as a local government area by Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973. The districts were created, by the 1973 act, as districts of the two-tier Highland region and abolished as local government areas under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1994, which turned the Highland region into a unitary council area.
