Walter - I recall it being discussed a few years ago but like some others, including Colin, did not know it had come into effect (it was written on the entry form).
Ask Andy M about the motion. Although he has no interest he's here...

The entry form says

"Titles will only be awarded to those satisfying Scottish nationality (SCO) who are also members of Chess Scotland; "

This does not by itself imply that being given a SCO code (these are needed for FIDE admin purposes) confers Scottish nationality. The entry form has differed from published eligibility criteria before.

The SCO code did feature in one AGM motion, along with eligibility criteria. The code wasn't supposed to replace the Scottish nationality criteria! (FIDE admin complications were cited as the reason the code had such prominence in the process)

Although it did seem that the waiving of all the criteria for eligibility (i.e. for the Championship and Olympiad selection) was going to happen by stealth anyway, as many in CS management seemed to be arguing at the time, apparently with Matthew in mind.

I remember thinking that there wasn't as much members interest in such changes as there might have been. Moral of the story... Sad

Me again..
 
There was something at the 2016 AGM I believe. The minutes read:
 
5. Matters by members. Chess Scotland Champion must be SCO registered. Grey areas over who is Scottish and who isn’t. Discussion on wording of proposal. IE discussion onwhether this is to do with number of Country code. Minor amendment –DB suggests change to federation designation instead of Country Code. AM agrees to amendment. amendmentpassed. Vote on proposal. 16 for. 14 against. Motion passed.

The motion itself isn't given - not so much a "grey area" but rather, invisible..

There also was a (failed) motion on eligibility at the 2015 AGM but the minute says "Current eligibility rules remain".

These were Scottish birth, residence or parentage I believe.

Do these (long-standing) criteria no longer apply?
What are the eligibility for criteria for Championships/International selection?
What is the policy? Where is it, even?
