From 1707 to 1963 the House of Lords included sixteen Scottish representative peers, elected from among the peerage of Scotland to sit for one parliament. After each dissolution of parliament, a new election of representative peers from Scotland took place. This continued even after the addition of Irish representative peers, who held their seats in the Lords for life.
Under the Peerage Act 1963 which came into effect in August that year, all Scottish peers were given seats in the House of Lords as of right, thus after that date no further Scottish representative peers were needed.
