| 2005 to present |
The results of the Fifth Periodical Review became effective in Scotland for the 2005 general election.
The review defined 19 burgh constituencies and 40 county constituencies, with each electing one MP. Therefore Scotland has 59 parliamentary seats.
Each constituency is entirely within a council area or a grouping of two or three council areas.
