  • Spice Briefing 03/25 2003 Scottish Parliament Election Results
    SPICe ELECTION 2003 briefing ROSS BURNSIDE,STEPHEN HERBERT &STEPHEN CURTIS 6 May 2003 03/25 This paper provides analysis of the 2003 Scottish Parliament election and compares it with 1999. Many have claimed that the result has reshaped the landscape of Scottish politics, ending the traditional hegemony of the mainstream political parties, and allowing space for independent candidates to enter the political arena. This paper analyses what the results mean for the Scottish Parliament. It features contributions from various experts on Scottish Politics. John Curtice looks at the issue of turnout at the election and, among other things, what this means for the legitimacy of the Parliament. Peter Lynch analyses the state of the parties in the aftermath of polling day. Chris Eynon and Chris Martin look into what the pre-election opinion polls tell us about electoral behaviour. Douglas Fraser discusses the election campaign from the perspective of the political parties and the media. Finally, Nicola McEwen looks at regional voting patterns, and analyses how voters use of their 2nd “regional” vote affected the outcome of the election. The views expressed by these authors are their own, and do not represent the views of the Scottish Parliament. John Curtice is professor of Politics at the University of Strathclyde. Peter Lynch is a lecturer in Politics at the University of Stirling. Chris Eynon is the Group Managing Director of NFO System Three in Edinburgh. Chris Martin is Senior Research Associate within NFO System Three Social Division. Douglas Fraser is the Political Editor of the Sunday Herald. Nicola McEwen is a research fellow in Politics at the University of Edinburgh.

  • BCS Paper 2016/23 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Constituency Considerations for South Lanarkshire, North Lanarkshi
    Boundary Commission for Scotland BCS Paper 2016/23 2018 Review of UK Parliament Constituencies Constituency considerations for South Lanarkshire, North Lanarkshire and Dumfries and Galloway council areas Action required 1. The Commission is invited to consider alternative designs of constituencies for South Lanarkshire, North Lanarkshire and Dumfries and Galloway council areas in furtherance of its 2018 Review of UK Parliament constituencies. Background 2. On 24 February 2016, the Commission began its 2018 Review of UK Parliament constituencies with a view to making its recommendations by October 2018 in tandem with the other UK parliamentary boundary commissions. 3. The review is being undertaken in compliance with the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, as amended. The Act stipulates a UK electoral quota of 74,769.2 electors and use of the parliamentary electorate figures from the December 2015 Electoral Register. The 5% electorate limits in the Act correspond to an electorate of no less than 71,031 and no more than 78,507. 4. The Act requires the Commission to recommend the name, extent and designation of constituencies in Scotland, of which there are to be 53 in total. 2 Scottish constituencies are prescribed in the Act: Orkney and Shetland Islands constituency and Western Isles constituency. 5. The Act provides some discretion in the extent of the Commission’s regard to the size, shape and accessibility of constituencies, existing constituencies and the breaking of local ties. As this review is considered to be the first following enactment of the legislation (the 6th Review was ended before completion in 2013 following enactment of the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013) the Commission need not have regard to the inconveniences attendant on changes to constituencies.
