Thirty-nine candidates are campaigning for one of the 22 seats on West Dunbartonshire Council in next month's local government elections.
At the last election no party was able to claim a majority of 12 seats, with the SNP the biggest party, taking ten seats. Labour, who had held a majority before the vote, lost four councillors and took eight seats, while the Conservatives gained two seats and Jim Bollan taking a seat for the West Dunbartonshire Community Party.
This year ballot papers will see representatives of the Scottish National Party, Labour Party, Scottish Green Party and the West Dunbartonshire Community Party as well the Scottish Family Party and the Scottish Libertarian Party stand in at least one of the six wards across the constituency.
