(Reuters) - Support for Scotland to remain part of the United Kingdom and reject independence has rebounded before a referendum in September, two opinion polls published on Sunday showed.
An ICM poll showed support for the campaign against independence had risen 4 percentage points to 46 percent, while the proportion backing a split fell 5 points to 34 percent.
The poll gives the 'Better Together' campaign a 12 point lead, up 9 percentage points since last month but at the same level it had in a February survey by the same pollster.
A second poll, published by Panelbase, showed 47 percent would vote against independence - an increase of 2 percent. Support for independence was unchanged at 40 percent, with 13 percent undecided.
All Scottish residents aged 16 and over can vote on Sept. 18 on whether Scotland should end its 307-year-old union with England and leave the United Kingdom. If a majority vote in favour, Scotland will become independent on March 24, 2016.
Following are the major opinion polls monitoring voter intentions since last November's release of the Scottish government's blueprint for independence, with some earlier polls for comparison.
At the referendum, Scots will be asked one question: should Scotland be an independent country?
