Falkirk West (Scottish Parliament constituency)

Falkirk West (Gaelic: An Eaglais Bhreac an Iar) is a burgh constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council area of Falkirk. It elects one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the plurality (first past the post) method of election. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, it has also been one of nine constituencies in the Central Scotland electoral region, which elects seven additional members, in addition to nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole. Following the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries, Falkirk West will form part of the new Central Scotland and Lothians West region from the 2026 Scottish Parliament election onwards.

The constituency was created at the same time as the Scottish Parliament, for the 1999 Scottish Parliament election. Ahead of the 2011 Scottish Parliament election the boundaries of the seat were reformed and reshaped. Further boundary changes were effected by the second periodic review in 2025.

The seat has been held by Michael Matheson of the Scottish National Party since the 2007 Scottish Parliament election.
