Cornish Nationalism - Autonomy Movement

Autonomy Movement

See also: Cornish Assembly

Cornish nationalists generally seek some form of autonomy for Cornwall. Some advocate a Cornish Assembly, a regionally elected legislature that would make Cornwall a region of the United Kingdom, aiming to bring the current unitary council and related institutions into similar political and administrative status as Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, whilst others advocate going further by recognising the Crown Dependency status of the Duchy and implementing equivalent arrangements.
