Boundaries

[edit]

I note removal of reference to Renfrewshire. The Govan Holyrood constituency was created in 1999 with the boundaries of the Govan Westminster constituency. In 1999, and until 2005 (when the Westminster constituency was replaced with new constituencies), the Westminster constituency did include part of Renfrewhire, and, at present, the Holyrood constituency is unchanged, retaining the boundaries it had when created. See The 5th Periodical Report of the Boundary Commission for Scotland, which details 2005 changes to boundaries of Westminster constituencies, and shows pre 2005 Glasgow Govan covering part of Renfrewshire.

Constituency Profile

[edit]

quite aside from the fact that no other Glasgow City Scottish Parliament Constituency seems to have a "constituency profile" section, apart from the undeniable geographical truths (there are three unis and a museum or two in kelvin) there's no references for the stated affluence of the area. I'm pretty sure Glasgow Cathcart can give it a run for its money in terms of the undefined "affluence"
