Collette Stevenson

Collette Stevenson (née McDade, born 1969) is a Scottish National Party (SNP) politician. She has served as the Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for East Kilbride since May 2021.

She served as a local councillor for South Lanarkshire's East Kilbride Central South ward from 2017 and was depute provost at the time of her election as an MSP; she stood down as a councillor ahead of the 2022 local elections.

Stevenson was raised in East Kilbride, where she lives with her family. A graduate in business from the University of the West of Scotland, she was employed in administrative roles at the local authority. She was a founding member of the East Kilbride branch of Women for Independence.

In February 2025, Stevenson was reported to be on an all-female "hit list" of SNP MSPs that were to be asked to stand down from the Scottish Parliament to make room for ex-MPs who had lost their seats in the 2024 general election. The alleged list was reported to have been drawn up at Stephen Flynn's direction by Aberdeenshire North and Moray East MP Seamus Logan. In May 2025, she was reselected for the 2026 Scottish Parliament election.
