The Scottish National Party 
Here, in shortened 'bitesize' pieces, is the SNP Euro-manifesto. All commitments apply to an independent Scotland.
The Single Currency
In favour; the euro would strengthen Scotland's economy.
Defence
The SNP would withdraw from NATO and would instead support the creation of European defence organisations such as the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
Reform of the EU
Powers should be given to the European Parliament to scrutinise the EC more effectively.
The Budget
Scotland would be a net receiver of funds, like other small countries.
Home Affairs
Asylum and immigration rules would be relaxed; an open border policy is favoured.
Enlargement
The SNP is pro-enlargement.
Fraud
There should be EC reforms to combat fraud and improve accountability.
Soundbite
Scotland needs a direct voice in the EU so that we can promote our national interests at the top table
