North East Scotland (Scottish Parliament electoral region)

North East Scotland is one of the eight electoral regions of the Scottish Parliament which were created in 1999. Ten of the parliament's 73 first past the post constituencies are sub-divisions of the region. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, the region elects seven regional Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs), in addition to the ten constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole, which thus elects a total of 17 MSPs.

Constituencies and local government areas
2026–present Following the Second Periodic Review of Scottish Parliament Boundaries, boundaries for Scotland's electoral regions and constituencies were redrawn ahead the 2026 Scottish Parliament election. North East Scotland saw a very minor change in its boundary with the Highlands and Islands region, as result of changes to the boundary between the Moray and Banffshire and Buchan Coast constituencies, but was otherwise left unchanged. In terms of local government areas the region covers: • AberdeenshireAberdeen CityDundee City • part of Angus (otherwise within the Mid Scotland and Fife electoral region) • a small part of Moray (otherwise within the Highlands and Islands electoral region) • a small part of Perth and Kinross (otherwise within the Mid Scotland and Fife electoral region) ==Members of the Scottish Parliament==
