  1. To give expression to the widespread opposition to the use of Scotland's land and resources for:

    • Nuclear weapons and the systems which support them such as bases and nuclear convoys

    • Offensive military strategies of the UK and US governments and the wars which they create

    • The testing of new and existing armaments associated with these strategies such as depleted uranium shells in the Solway, the supergun at Dundrennan and the bombing range at Cape Wrath

  2. That Scottish institutions articulate the popular opposition to aggressive war and promote Scotland as a force for peace
