Glasgow Shettleston (Scottish Parliament constituency)

Glasgow Shettleston was a constituency of the Scottish Parliament, being one of eight constituencies within the Glasgow City council area. Under the additional-member system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, the seat elected one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the plurality method of election, and was also one of nine constituencies in the Glasgow electoral region, which elected seven additional members, in addition to the nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole.

Electoral region
During the period Glasgow Shettleston was in existence, the other eight constituencies of the Glasgow region were: Glasgow Anniesland, Glasgow Cathcart, Glasgow Kelvin, Glasgow Maryhill and Springburn, Glasgow Pollok, Glasgow Provan, Glasgow Southside and Rutherglen. In this period the region covered the Glasgow City council area and a north-western portion of the South Lanarkshire council area. == Constituency boundaries ==
Constituency boundaries
The Glasgow Shettleston constituency was created at the same time as the Scottish Parliament, ahead of the 1999 Scottish Parliament election, using the name and boundaries of the existing Glasgow Shettleston constituency of the UK Parliament. Ahead of the 2005 United Kingdom general election, boundaries for the UK House of Commons constituencies were revised, whilst the same boundaries were retained for use in elections to the Scottish Parliament. There is now no longer any link between the two sets of boundaries. The boundaries of the seat were altered by the first periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries; the first election under these new boundaries was the 2011 Scottish Parliament election. The following electoral wards of Glasgow City Council were used to define Glasgow Shettleston at this review: • In full: Calton, Shettleston • In part: Baillieston (shared with Glasgow Provan) == Member of the Scottish Parliament ==
