Registration notes:	In August 2007, the Friends of Scotland Caucus tartan was presented by the Scottish Executive to a visiting delegation of senior US politicians who were members of the Friends of Scotland Caucus which was launched during Tartan Week in April 2006 to strengthen links between the US and Scotland. Its members include nearly 40 US Congressmen. The tartan incorporates the six white and seven red stripes from the American flag with the white cross of Scotland on a blue background of the Scottish Saltire. The green is a traditional Scottish tartan colour which can be found in the Duncan and Macintyre tartans, surnames of the co-founders of the Caucus, John Duncan and Mike Macintyre.

Please note

Where tartans were recorded before the establishment of the Scottish Register of Tartans (SRT) on 5 February 2009, the original Scottish Tartans Authority (STA) and the Scottish Tartans World Register (STWR) reference numbers have been retained. The new SRT reference number can be found in the address box on your browser (url).

The registration criteria now applied by the Register conforms to the Scottish Register of Tartans Act 2008. These criteria are different to those previously applied by either the STA or the STWR. You may wish to refer to the STA website for further information on the original recording of this tartan.
