From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



South Ayrshire (Siorrachd Inbhir Àir a Deas in Gaelic) is one of 32 unitary council regions in Scotland, covering the southern part of Ayrshire. It borders onto East Ayrshire and Dumfries and Galloway.

The region was formed in 1996 and is a direct successor to the Kyle and Carrick district.

The Council elections in May 2003 resulted in a "hung" Council where both the Labour Party and the Conservative Party had 15 seats. Control of the Council was settled when the Labour Group won a "cutting of the cards". Following the resignation of Labour leader Andy Hill from the Council, the Conservative group took control of the administration on a 15-14 vote.
