The SNP have been returned as East Ayrshire Council's ruling party despite concerns that they may face a similar fate to SNP colleagues across the country.
It also marks a return for the 'rock n roll' Provost Jim Todd and Deputy Provost Claire Leitch, after they were ousted by the opposition parties last summer.
Councillor Douglas Reid returns as leader of the council, with councillor Jim McMahon returned as depute leader.
