Fife North East (Scottish Parliament constituency)

Fife North East is a county constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council area of Fife. It elects one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the first past the post method of election. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, it is also one of nine constituencies in the Mid Scotland and Fife electoral region, which elects seven additional members, in addition to the nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole. Prior to the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries in 2025, the constituency was known as North East Fife; the name was changed to avoid confusion with the North East Fife constituency of the UK Parliament.

Constituency boundaries and council area
The seat is one of five representing Fife the Scottish Parliament with the other four being Cowdenbeath, Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy, and Mid Fife and Glenrothes. The constituency was created at the same time as the Scottish Parliament, for the 1999 Scottish Parliament election, using the name and boundaries of the pre-existing North East Fife constituency of the House of Commons constituency. Since the 2005 United Kingdom general election UK and Scottish parliamentary constituencies have diverged, and there is no longer any link between the two sets of boundaries, although they continued to share a name. The boundaries of the Scottish Parliament seat were themselves reviewed ahead of the 2011 Scottish Parliament election as part of the first periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries. The following electoral wards of Fife Council were used to define the North East Fife constituency at this review: • CuparEast Neuk and LandwardHowe of Fife and Tay CoastSt AndrewsTay Bridgehead At the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries in 2025 the seat boundaries were unchanged, however from the 2026 Scottish Parliament election onwards the constituency has been renamed to Fife North East to avoid confusion with the North East Fife constituency of the UK Parliament. == Member of the Scottish Parliament ==
