Paisley South was a constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council area of Renfrewshire. It elected one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the first past the post method of election. For the 2011 Scottish Parliament election the town of Paisley was split between two new constituencies. The new constituency of Paisley largely replaced both Paisley North and Paisley South; some areas covered by Paisley South were also transferred to the new constituency of Renfrewshire South.
