Kay Ullrich

Kay Ullrich (born 1943, Prestwick) is a Scottish politician. She was a Scottish National Party Member of the Scottish Parliament for the West of Scotland region from 1999 to 2003.

Ullrich has contested numerous elections for the SNP: in Cunninghame South and Motherwell South, before coming a close second in the Monklands East by-election, 1994. [ [http://www.alba.org.uk/nextwe/w02.html Scottish Politics - Candidates & Constituency Assessments: Cunninghame North] ]

In the 1999 election she stood as a constituency candidate in Cunninghame North, where she was runner-up to Allan Wilson. However her number two position on the SNP West of Scotland list was enough to take her to Holyrood.

She was initially the SNP's shadow minister for Health and Community Care, and was then appointed Chief Whip upon John Swinney becoming SNP leader in 2000. She stood down at the 2003 election.
