___________________________________________________________________ To: Council On: 25 September 2025 ___________________________________________________________________ Report by: Chief Executive ___________________________________________________________________ Heading: Second Review of Scottish Parliamentary Boundaries ___________________________________________________________________ 1. Summary 1.1 Boundaries Scotland conduct reviews of Scottish Parliamentary constituency and region boundaries every 8-12 years. The Second Review commenced on 1 September 2022 with the first consultation commencing on 17 May 2023. The Council has responded to each phase of the four phases of consultation and was also afforded the opportunity to reiterate its responses at two local inquiries. 1.2 The detailed background to the first three phases of consultation, and the Council’s responses to these consultations were set out in the report submitted to the meeting of the Cross Party Sounding Board held on 12 February 2025, a copy of which can be viewed through the following link: https://renfrewshire.cmis.uk.com/renfrewshire/Meetings/tabid/70/ctl/Vie wMeetingPublic/mid/397/Meeting/6472/Committee/155/Default.aspx 1.3 The details of the fourth phase of consultation and the Council’s response thereto is set out in section 3 of this report. 1.4 The Final Recommendations for the Second Review of Scottish Parliament Boundaries was submitted to Scottish Ministers on 30 April 2025. The Recommendations have been approved by the Scottish Parliament and, subject to approval by the Privy Council, the new
Page 2
boundaries will be effective at the next Scottish Parliament election scheduled for 7 May 2026. 1.5 This report sets out the Final Recommendations approved by the Scottish Parliament insofar as they relate to Renfrewshire, highlighting changes to existing Scottish Parliament names and boundaries and alterations to polling district boundaries and coding. ___________________________________________________________________ 2. Recommendations Council is asked to: 2.1 Note the Final Recommendations of the Second Review of Scottish Parliamentary Boundaries as approved by the Scottish Parliament; 2.2 Approve the changes to the polling districts and polling places as set out in the appendices to this report for use in all elections and referenda until the next review of the polling arrangements. _________________________________________________________ 3. Background 3.1 Boundaries Scotland published its Provisional Proposals for Scottish Parliament constituencies in May 2023 which set out to: • take account of council area boundaries. • create constituencies and regions that had broadly the same number of electors. The electorate quota was calculated as 59,902. • take account of special geographical considerations (including in particular the size, shape and accessibility of a constituency or region). • take account of local ties and other inconveniences caused by changes to constituencies. 3.2 The constituency design approach saw Renfrewshire included in a grouping with East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde and Glasgow City Councils. 3.3 Boundaries Scotland’s Revised Proposals for Scottish Parliament constituencies were published on 16 April 2024. The revised proposals in respect of the Paisley and Renfrewshire West constituency took on board a number of the Council’s observations to the provisional proposals. However further issues were highlighted and submitted to
Page 3
Boundaries Scotland relative to the new Erskine and Cardonald constituency. 3.4 Further Proposals for constituency boundaries and Provisional Proposals for new region boundaries were published by Boundaries Scotland on 26 September 2024. 3.5 At that time, Boundaries Scotland also published its Provisional Proposals for region boundaries. There are eight Scottish Parliament regions, each returning seven regional (list) MSPs. The rules governing the boundary setting process for regions state “a constituency must fall wholly within a region” and “the regional electorate must be as near the regional electorate of each of the other regions as is practicable, having regard (where appropriate) to special geographical considerations. 3.6 Further details of the first three phases of consultation and the Council’s response to each stage were set out in some detail in a report submitted to the meeting of the Cross Party Sounding Board held on 12 February 2025, a copy of which can be viewed through the following link: https://renfrewshire.cmis.uk.com/renfrewshire/Meetings/tabid/70/ctl/Vie wMeetingPublic/mid/397/Meeting/6472/Committee/155/Default.aspx 3.7 Having considered responses to the previous round of consultation, Boundaries Scotland published Additional Proposals for constituencies and Revised Proposals for regions for the Scottish Parliament on 24 January 2025. 3.8 The main Boundaries Scotland proposals took into account many of the Council’s comments previously submitted. The more significant new proposals were: • The Erskine, Renfrew and Cardonald constituency was renamed Renfrewshire North and Cardonald • Langbank was included in the new Renfrewshire North and Cardonald constituency (previously had been included in the Renfrewshire West constituency) and Glasgow airport was returned to the Paisley constituency, following existing Ward boundaries • The Renfrewshire West constituency was renamed Renfrewshire West and Levern Valley • The boundary of the proposed constituency at the Phoenix Retail Park was amended to follow Ward boundaries • In terms of region proposals the Renfrewshire North and Cardonald constituency would now sit in the West Scotland Region and not the Glasgow Region. This last proposal had been a principal area of objection by the Council.

3.9 The principal outstanding matter related to the inclusion of the entire Glasgow City Council Cardonald Ward in the Renfrewshire North and Cardonald constituency and the impact that this had on the constituency’s electorate. The addition of Langbank to the constituency further increased the electorate from 62,842 to 63,745 (based on 2022 electorate figures). Given the continuing significant developments in Dargavel and Renfrew the electorate would continue to grow to become one of Scotland’s largest constituencies, if not, the largest. 3.10 The Council made further representations to Boundaries Scotland relative to the new name for the former Renfrewshire South constituency, that this constituency be renamed Renfrewshire South and Levern Valley and not Renfrewshire West and Levern Valley as set out in the consultation and the rapidly increasing size of the new Renfrewshire North and Cardonald constituency. 4. Final Recommendations 4.1 The Final Recommendations submitted to the Scottish Parliament on 30 April 2025 did not take on board any of the Council’s concerns detailed in paragraphs 3.9 and 3.10 above. 4.2 Accordingly the three Scottish Parliamentary Constituencies approved by the Scottish Parliament were: Constituency name Desig- nation Council area Ward Ward Name Electorate (1 Sep 2022) Total Elect- orate Variation from electorate quota (59,902) Paisley Burgh Renfrewshire 2 (part) Renfrew South and Gallowhill 3,942 Renfrewshire 3 Paisley North-east and Ralston 9,069 Renfrewshire 4 Paisley North-west 13,813 Renfrewshire 5 Paisley East and Central 10,182 Renfrewshire 6 Paisley South-east 9,534

These changes have required amendments to be made to the numbering protocol for polling districts. The Polling District references will look quite different in some polling
Page 6
places and the reference protocol is also explained in Appendix 4. In some cases, where polling districts lie within the same UK and Scottish Parliament Constituency and same Council Ward the opportunity has been taken to amalgamate those districts and renumber accordingly. Appendix 4 to this report highlights all the changes which have been made. 4.5 The changes in Wards 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 12 are minor involving district renumbering and polling district amalgamations where appropriate. However, in Ward 12 it is proposed that voters in polling district NN14 (previously NN21) will vote at Barsail Primary School rather than Erskine Baptist Church. This change is recommended as the location of the Church makes access challenging for voters with disabilities. 4.6 In Ward 2 there are changes as a result of part of the former NN07 polling district and all of the former NN12 polling district now falling in the Paisley Constituency. 4.7 In Ward 4 there are changes as a result of the former NN13 polling district now falling in the Paisley Constituency. 4.8 In Wards 8, 9 and 10 the changes are to polling district codes as they now fall in the renamed Renfrewshire West & Levern Valley constituency. 4.9 In Ward 11 the ward there are various changes arising from the new boundary between the Renfrewshire North and Cardonald and Renfrewshire West & Levern Valley constituencies with the Ward being split between the two. The former NN16 polling district has been split by the new boundary requiring two new polling districts to be created. The new NN10 will fall within Renfrewshire North and Cardonald and the new NW03 in Renfrewshire West & Levern Valley. The remainder of the polling districts have been renumbered or had their code changed to reflect which of the two constituencies they now fall in. 4.10 Appendix 5 to the report sets out the potential Scottish Parliamentary election polling plan for the three constituencies that fall either wholly or predominately within the Renfrewshire Council area. 4.11 The Returning Officer for Renfrewshire has historically acted as the Regional Returning Officer for the West Scotland Region. It is anticipated that this will remain the position. There is little significant change to the West Scotland Region other than Cardonald not being part of that area. The constituencies making up the West Scotland Region are: Paisley; Renfrewshire North and Cardonald; Renfrewshire West and Levern Valley; Clydebank and Milngavie; Cunninghame North; Cunninghame South; Eastwood; Inverclyde (previously called Greenock and Inverclyde); and Strathkelvin and Bearsden.

4.12 It should be noted that the final proposals agreed by the Scottish Parliament will be subject to final approval by the Privy Council, which is scheduled to give consideration to this matter in October 2025. However, it is not anticipated that this will result in anything other than approval of the boundaries as approved by the Scottish Parliament. _________________________________________________________________ Implications of the Report 1.
