The Provincial Council is one of the bodies of the Province, together with the President of the Province and the Provincial Council. The Provincial Council may well be considered the 'Parliament' of Trentino and performs the legislative function. It is therefore a representative body of the population and a political body, since it guides and determines the political choices of the Province. The Provincial Council is elected by universal, direct and secret suffrage and consists of thirty-five councillors.
