1992 Hamilton District Council election

Elections to Hamilton District Council were held on 7 May 1992, on the same day as the other Scottish local government elections. This was the final election to the district council which was abolished in 1995 along with East Kilbride District Council and Clydesdale District Council and, combined with part of the abolished City of Glasgow District Council, was replaced by South Lanarkshire Council following the implementation of the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994. The regional council, Strathclyde, was also abolished and the new unitary authority took on its responsibilities.

The election was also the last to use the 20 wards created by the Initial Statutory Reviews of Electoral Arrangements in 1980 without alterations. Each ward elected one councillor using first-past-the-post voting.

Labour maintained control of the district council after winning 15 of the 20 seats. Despite a slight reduction in their vote share, they again took more than have the votes cast. Both the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats won two seats and the remaining seat was won by Independent Labour. Despite coming second in the popular vote, the Scottish National Party (SNP) lost their only seat.
