[edit] Boundaries
The Perth and Kinross constituency was largely a replacement for the Perth and East Perthshire constituency.[citation needed] As first used in the 1983 general election, it covered part of the region of Tayside, which had been created in 1975, under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, as a region of three districts, including the district of Perth and Kinross. In 1997 the Perth and Kinross constituency was largely replaced by the Perth constituency.[citation needed]
