Elections to North Ayrshire Council were held on 3 May 2007, the same day as the 31 otherScottish local government elections and theScottish Parliament elections. The election was the first one using eight newwards created as a result of theLocal Governance (Scotland) Act 2004, each ward will elect three or four councillors using thesingle transferable vote system form ofproportional representation. The new wards replaced the 30 single-member wards which used theplurality (first past the post) system of election.

Labour lost overall control of the council but remained the largest party after winning 12 seats - down nine from the previous election. TheScottish National Party (SNP) became the second-largest party, overtaking theConservatives, after gaining five seats to hold eight. The Conservatives lost two seats to hold three while theLiberal Democrats won seats in a North Ayrshire election for the only time after they returned two councillors. Five independent councillors were also elected.
