East Renfrewshire Council was established by statute on 1st April 1996 subsequent to an Act of Parliament reorganising local government in Scotland.

The working practices of the Parliament were devised through extensive discussion. An all-party Consultative Steering Group was set up in November 1997, under Henry McLeish, the then Scottish Devolution Minister. It conducted a wide public consultation exercise and commissioned expert evidence as well as holding meetings.
