No overall control

Elections to North Ayrshire Council were held on 3 May 2007, the same day as the 31 other Scottish local government elections and the Scottish Parliament elections. The election was the first one using eight new wards created as a result of the Local Governance (Scotland) Act 2004, each ward will elect three or four councillors using the single transferable vote system form of proportional representation. The new wards replaced the 30 single-member wards which used the plurality (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. The Scottish National Party (SNP) became the second-largest party, overtaking the Conservatives, after gaining five seats to hold eight. The Conservatives lost two seats to hold three while the Liberal Democrats won seats in a North Ayrshire election for the only time after they returned two councillors. Five independent councillors were also elected.
