The Right Honourable Lord Provost of Glasgow is the convener of the Glasgow City Council. The Lord Provost serves both as the chair of the city council and as a figurehead for the entire city, and is elected by the city councillors from among its members at the council's first meeting. The office is equivalent in many ways to the institution of mayor that exists in the cities of many other countries.
The Lord Provost of the City of Glasgow, by virtue of office, is also:

Lord-Lieutenant of the County of the City of Glasgow
a Commissioner of Northern Lighthouses.
Each of the 32 Scottish local authorities elects a provost, but it is only the four main cities, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Dundee that have a Lord Provost, who also serves as the lord-lieutenant for the city. This is codified in the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994. As of 2017, the role attracts a salary of £41,546, plus an annual expenses budget of £5000.
The current Lord Provost of Glasgow, elected in May 2022, is Jacqueline McLaren.
The Lord Provost of Glasgow has the use of an official limousine which is always black and always carries the registration plate "G0". Past limousines are on display at the city's Transport Museum. The current limousine is a Rolls-Royce Ghost, donated by Boyd Tunnock in 2018. Though it was purportedly sold-off in 2022 for approx. £105,000 to go to the Duke of Edinburgh scheme.




List of provosts and lord provosts


The Medieval burgh of Glasgow was administered on behalf of the Bishops of Glasgow by officials known as Bailies or Provosts. The office of Provost as a single chief magistrate was not created until the early 1450s.




Deputy lieutenants


A deputy lieutenant of Glasgow is commissioned by the Lord Lieutenant of Glasgow. Deputy lieutenants support the work of the lord-lieutenant. There can be several deputy lieutenants at any time, depending on the population of the county. Their appointment does not terminate with the changing of the lord-lieutenant, but they usually retire at age 75.
