The Lord Lieutenant of Angus, is the British monarch's personal representative in an area which was defined by the Lord-Lieutenants (Scotland) Order 1996[1] as consisting of the unitary Angus council area, in Scotland.
The lieutenancy area was previously defined by the Lord-Lieutenants (Scotland) Order 1975 as consisting of the Angus district, which was one of three districts of the two-tier Tayside region created by the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 and abolished by the Local Government etc (Scotland) Act 1994, which divided the region between the Angus, Dundee City, and Perth and Kinross council areas.
There can be several deputy lieutenants at any time, depending on the population of the county.
Their appointment does not terminate with the changing of the lord-lieutenant, but they usually retire at age 75.
