| | Scottish Parliament |
| | One MSP is elected by the other MSPs to be Presiding Officer, a position similar to that of the Speaker of the House in the UK Parliament. | | | Although a slim majority of voters voted for the Parliament, the referendum failed to reach the 40% of the total electorate threshold deemed necessary to pass the referendum. | | | Since 1999, the death in office of Donald Dewar, Scotland's first First Minister, and the resignation brought on by a business conflict of interest of his sucessor Henry McLeish, have meant that the first years of the parliament have not been easy. |

| | The period was a relatively quiet time in Scottish politics, following the UK general election of June 2001, and the upcoming Scottish parliamentary election in May 2003. | | | As regards votes for Holyrood, Labour was averaging 39% for the constituency vote, virtually what it took at the 1999 election, and 30% for the list vote, and so its vote was holding up well, despite the Henry McLeish debacle in the autumn of 2001. | | | It has been a relatively quiet period in terms of opinion polling over the last 18 months, but this is likely to change with the upcoming Scottish elections in May 2003. |

| | This moment was the culmination of a process that can be traced back to the establishment of the Scottish Home Rule Association in 1886, but it was the election in 1997 of a Labour government committed to devolution that finally paved the way for a referendum and the elections of 6 May 1999. | | | In recognition of the significance of the first elections to a Scottish parliament for almost 300 years, the Andersonian Library at the University of Strathclyde started a campaign to collect literature from the election - the newsletters, leaflets, postcards and other ephemera produced by candidates and political parties. | | | The 1999 election was unique in being the first Scottish parliamentary election for 300 years, but there is another one due in 2003 that could be recorded in similar fashion, should funding for digitisation be secured. |
