Elections to the Scottish Parliament also take place every four years - the next one is currently scheduled for May 2015.
Below, you'll find our materials and case studies that specifically relate to Scotland - but of course, many of our more general materials are also relevant to Scotland. Visit the 'Toolbox index' to view all of our materials, or use the drop-down 'What are you working on?' menus to the left to view materials by audience, electoral event or activity.
