Tricia Marwick (born 1953) is the Scottish National Party Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for Central Fife.
She was born on November 5, 1953 in Cowdenbeath[1] and brought up in Fife. She has been MSP for Mid Scotland and Fife since 1999 and contested Central Fife in the 2003, although she narrowly failed to win that particular seat and was re-elected to serve Mid Scotland and Fife through the Additional Members System. She contested Central Fife again in 2007 and Marwick was elected after defeating the incumbent, Christine May with a majority of 1,166.
She is the vice convener of the SNP Parliamentary Group and as such is a member of the Party's National Executive Committee. She was appointed front bench spokesperson on housing in 2005. She was previously the convener of the Scottish Parliament’s Standards Committee. However, she was not appointed to ministerial office after the SNP's victory in the 2007 election, but was named their representative on the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body.
She previously worked as Public Affairs Officer for Shelter Scotland, a charity for homeless people.
