Information has been released on how Police Scotland have broken up house parties in all Local Authority areas across the country.
The data looks at how many times officers dispersed gatherings and issued Fixed Penalty Notices under the new powers which were brought in to reduce the spread of Covid-19.
Police were given the power to break up house parties breaching social gathering rules on August 28 last year.
Since then, almost 6,000 Fixed Penalty Notices (FTN) have been handed out and 361 people have been arrested.
The worst offending area for this was Greater Glasgow and Clyde, with 4,794 people being asked to leave parties since August 28 - and 21,466 since lockdown began on March 27, 2020.
The worst offending local division for people being issued fines was Glasgow's North West - with 675 FTNs issued.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
