Subsequent changes

†Jim Bollan, elected as an independent councillor, became a member of the newly formed Scottish Socialist Party in 2000.

††In May 2001, after the wrongful dismissal of the council's Chief Executive, 4 Labour councillors, Councillors Campbell, McCafferty, Syme and Collins, rebelled against the party's administration to vote for a no confidence motion in the Council leader, Andrew White. The vote passed 12-10, but Councillor White refused to resign.[3] The 4 councillors later left the Labour party to become independents and formed a new administration in August of that year with support from the SNP and SSP councillors. The new Council leader was Daniel McCafferty, one of the rebels.[4]
