No, nor during any other century. Given the earliest references to Bagpipes or representations (Melrose/Roslin) in Scotland date from the 14th century not sure how they would come to be banned. The most famous myth about banning concerns the 18th century and post Culloden (proscription act, James Reid etc, read other posts) and they weren't banned then either.
