Text of notification received by the Speaker on 1 August 2023:
I refer to the Recall Petition in respect of the Rutherglen and Hamilton West Constituency, which closed at 5pm yesterday, 31 July 2023. I am now emailing to advise that the Count of signatures has been concluded and the result is as follows:—
The total number of valid signatures to the petition was 11896
The total electorate was 81,123
The threshold of 10% of electorate was 8113
The number of rejected signing sheets on the grounds of being unmarked was 37
Therefore the threshold has been met for the recall petition to be successful.
